Based on the true story of one woman's work towards
emotional well-being, Wild was a beautiful journey. It was both funny and
moving with a genuinely interesting plot.
Having suffered traumas in her life, Reese Witherspoon's
character, Cheryl, decides to hike the Pacific Crest Trail which runs 2663
miles from California to Canada. The scenic imagery in the movie is
outstanding. The natural beauty was enough to make me want to quit my job and
go hike the trail myself.
The people that Cheryl meets on her journey and the events
that take place entwine masterfully with the flashbacks to her troubled life.
The whole thing just works. Witherspoon's performance is believable and
heartfelt - definitely deserving of her Oscar nod.
If you want to laugh and cry, go see Wild.
