Looking for films that have tallies, such as in Cast Away when Tom Hanks is counting off the days. Are there any other movies that you can think of in which someone is using a tally and marking off the days as they go by?

Count of Monte Cristo is a classic where he counts his days in prison. Also, a more recent movie: Little Miss Sunshine, the son was counting the days until he could leave home to join the Air Force. I also think Bridget Jones Diary had a count down, but I can't remember exactly what for. I believe she was trying to quit smoking.

The Count of Monte Cristo
Papillion
There is also a documentary from the BBC about the number 1 hosted by Terry Jones (Monty Python). It traces the primative counting methods up through the invention of our current numbers and the invention of binary code.
