every once in a while i watch a great film that i shouldve watched sooner. this time it was into the wild. i dont know what kept from watching it. everybody i know that has seen this film raved about it. i love emile, catherine keener, marcia gay harden. so why? why? if you have seen it you may continue reading this post. but if you havent. please go get it, netflix it whatever you must do and watch it (then come back and read this)
i can go on and on about how much i love this movie but im not gonna write about the acting/directing/cinematography today. today i will write about one of the lines from the movie that really stuck with me. right before ron decides to take the hike, chris says something to him: You should make a radical change in your lifestyle. I mean the core of man's spirit comes from new experiences, and there you are stubborn old man, sitting on your butt!!
It made me think of all the scary new experiences in my life and how i wouldnt be who i am today if i hadnt been brave enough to face them. this film is truly an inspiration. makes me grateful, hopeful, motivated, at ease.
why didnt anyone yell at me for having not seen it before!!!!!
