I just finished watching Sean Penn's "Into the Wild," starring Emile Hirsch. I've got a lot to write about this movie, but it's late and that will have to wait for another time. In short: highly recommended.
I'm eager to hear your thoughts on the film. Have you read the book? My response to the film was/is mixed because I can't help but compare it with the book, and the film takes some interpretive liberties (as any film does) that I find a bit troubling.
It was a lushly beautiful film, so I probably would have enjoyed it much more if I hadn't read the book & thus had something to compare it to. But all that being said, I'm curious what you thought.
