I was in the mood for a Moral ridden movie.
Spare me the popcorn,as I am trying to lose weight. Spare me the Scary movie 1 thru 10 versions, I want to feel smart tonight .
So here it was, Into the Wild. Screen play by my favorite real bad boy, Sean Penn.
Its based on a true story about a young man named Chris .
Chris,upon graduation is on a mission to enter wildnerness and leave the world behind,as he got lost in winter and cold and trees and mountains and animals .He ventures out on his own,intentionally cuts his parents off ;the rich,snob like,overbearing types. He gives up communication with his sister,whom he had a very close relationship with.He refuses the parents money, and their material offerings.He spurns the elite living they have provided he and his sister,in between the shows of wife beating and infidelity .
He has this obsession with being grounded and proving all he needs is the things that nature provided him.
I was liking this kid for not wanting to be like these God awful parents . I was thinking my 16 yhr old needs to see this movie about not wanting alll these matrerial things we tend to spoil our kids with.
He needed no money,no family,and no people.
Wait a minute,no family ,no people ?
We journey with Chris,and he sees only his destination,yet the viewer is seeing this journey that he is totally missing .
