into the wild...

To start with, I am a big big fan of this movie...I mean, I have never been moved by any other movie in my life as this one. I mean, the depth and the pace is just right to give you a feel of ultimate involvement.
The first thing that gets you
involved is the fact that the protagonist is a college graduate which I'll be in a few years..!!!. And the next thing is that he leaves his home without telling anyone for alaska...that's his dream place.....that's where he wants to go...but on his way....he makes so many friends, experiences the world, the people...the tramps....he calls himself Alexander Supertramp..

I like that sequence in which he talks to the apple he's eating after a long day of trekking through the mountains and appreciates it so much.

'...you are so tasty, so organic...you are the apple of my eye..!!!'

He says the last line really well, taking the half-eaten apple close to his eyes and winking!! That was humorous really!!. Then his relationship with the old, ex-american soldier, who lost his wife and son in an accident and suddenly comes across alex...was really and truly emotional. He makes everyone happy, he meets on his way, but himself suffers the consequences of being out in the cruel world without anything but bare necessities and novels. Like, when he was thrown out of the train and beaten badly, it was quite painful. Another saying from the movie was quite inspiring...

'sometimes in life, it's not necessary to be strong but to feel strong...'

really.. although all of us have somewhere heard this before, but the way it was delivered was amazing...His stay in the 'magic bus' was the most intense and touching thing about the movie...he enjoys it first, then problems come up..he's running out of food, it's cold....all alone among the mountains, he can't continue his journey, spends the time introspecting and reading novels, trying to figure out whether he has achieved what he set out for....but finally when he decides to return he finds that the snow has melted and his way back has been blocked by the mighty river which was nothing but a narrow stream when he came here in the winters...he is disheartened, tries to get himself together but starts losing hope, after all, he's also a human....starts hunting...regrets killing one of the stags as the bulk meat starts rotting ...tries to consult his novels and a few guides on edible plants...but mistakenly, takes poisonous plants and ultimately dies due to that...His last realization was...

'happiness is complete only when shared'

....which was the most touching, because he finally realizes the mistake he did, the grief he caused to his family and to the people he was close to, during his journey...His last moments were the most emotional and heart-melting, I've ever experienced...

Talking about the music...it was Eddie Vedder at his best...the soundtrack, 'hard sun' and 'long nights'..are just too addictive. Hats off to the movie and the director, Sean Penn....
