Into the Wild......and how.

Saw "Into the Wild" last night with an 85 year old friend. We loved it. She cried at the end, a definite hankie cry. She said the fellow reminded her of her grandson. Sooooo idealistic.

It was a spellbinding film, about Chris McCandless, the college grad who became a globe trekker upon graduating college, first giving his savings away to Oxfam and then burning his cash in the desert.

I have alot to say about this flick......it brought up alot of emotions (and judgments, let's be honest) in me, so a full review will be forthcoming. But for now, unlike "Alexander Supertramp", the moniker McCandless gives himself, I've got to get to work.
