Chula Vista

Into The Wild

Only the second time in the past 10 years. I needed to take a bunch of time since the first viewing. I'd read the book previousy. Christopher McCandless was obviously mentally ill in hindsight. The guy royally ****ed up. There was a bridge less than a quarter mile from where he died that could have saved his life if he'd just brought a map.

Emile Hirsch should have won an Oscar for his performance. Holbrook deservedly won one. Penn should have also won one.

Alexander Supertramp for the win.
