Movie of the Week! (5/26/13 - 6/1/13)

Into the Wild (2007)


Sometimes real life stories make for truly compelling films. Into the Wild is based on the life of Emory University graduate, Christopher McCandless, and is a film that captures the human spirit very well. McCandless' life is at times deeply beautiful and at others equally tragic. Directed and penned (screenplay) by Sean Penn, Into the Wild was nominated for 2 Oscars and has a solid cast. The only reservation I have about picking this film as MotW is its 148 minute run time which may require digesting it in multiple sittings.
