Into the Wild
Into The Wild is the true story of a young guy just out of university who travels across the US to live in the wilds of Alaska by himself — and who should have taken some survival courses before he got there. Although more interesting than dramatically engaging, it’s a well made road trip movie that’s worth a look, especially if you share the idealism of Thoreau. (Sean Penn, the director, discusses the film on Charlie Rose.)
