Fer survival tips prior to th' strandin' ya might wanta take a gander at Lina Wertmüller's 'Swept Away.' It seems to cover all the basics: foraging for food and water, shelter, hiney-pokin' -- everthing the body needs dontchaknow.

I didn’t watch the movie, but did some research. Since I been asked to choose, not in a million years will choose someone like Giuseppe and I’m not even near to be like Amber. I have being doing just fine without a man why choose someone like Giuseppe?.
3 things or person?
1-good set of Knives
2-Maybe a man (as an option)
3- ? Can’t find any more, come back to it latter.

Well, assuming you don't have a copy of the FM 21-76 ("Survival") manual handy, or you didn't undergo some sort of SERE or JEST training, you might look at Tom Hank's film CAST AWAY or the old 1960's flick 'Robinson Crusoe on Mars' with Paul Mantee, in which they handle things like, shelter, water, food, fire, etc.

At the very least, a really good knife, a hatchet or saw, something to start fire with, a still if you can't find potable water, fishhooks, endless rolls of 550 (parachute) cord. Assuming you were on ahip that got wrecked, either repair it or salvage it for useful parts.

Or, you could be like Seinfeld and use your American Express card and cellphone to call for rescue and a lobster dinner.
