makes you all romantic about wilderness ...changed my life!

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2013)

This is my first IMDb review. I have watched this movie countless times and will continue to do so. After watching the movie I got inspired to read the book also, which is also very very good. Please please please watch it with a patient and all-open heart and mind. Its about a guy who got too true to himself and his dreams. The movie is a testament to how incredibly difficult it is to be true to oneself to full extent. I think to live normally you got to learn to somehow lie to yourself and be okay with that.
Gotto put this quote here to put things in context : "It may, after all, be the bad habit of creative talents to invest themselves in pathological extremes that yield remarkable insights but no durable way of life for those who cannot translate their psychic wounds into significant art or thought"
The film touches you , mellows you, inspires you , questions you , challenges you even as it scares you! I just want to say so much about it , but just cant put it out. Damn! I hope the feeling I have for this movie has gotten across if not the words.
