*Into The Wild:

I think that Into The Wild is a very intersting story, in wich Christopher McCandless, the leaning actor, decides to leave his privileged life and get lost into the Alaskan bush. What I really like about it, it’s that his story, is told from his sister’s view, althought sometimes some other people thoughts appear.

Christopher McCandless, perceives his rich family and generally, all the people he meet, as materialistic; as he doesn’t want to be one of them, he decides to live a adventurous life, based on some famous philosopher books like Tolstoi’s ones. He destroys all his credit cards and donates all his money to a asociation called Oxfam, and after some extreme adventures, he decides finally to live alone in the land of Alaska. To obtain this purpose, he leaves his car and hitchhikes. Along the way, he meet a lot of different kind of people, some of them unconventional, as a group of hippies, a farm owner, or a lonely worker who offers him to be his grandson.

After a long way, he arrives to the Alaskan land, where affortunately, he finds an old bus in wich he can live during his adventure. As McCandless is enjoying his stay, starts to write a book of his experiences.

When the spring arrives, he decides to start eating plants, because he has a book about edible plants from wich he can know which ones are edible and which ones poisonous. Unconsciusly, he confuses an edible plant with a poisonous kind, wich affects his digestive system forcing him from starve to death.

Finally, he dies suffering a painful demise, how he write on his autobiography book, in great detail.

Although the ending of the movie is tragic, I enjoyed so much seeing this film, overall because it’s a real story, and I love them, because they make me think a lot...
