Into the Wild

Watched this (for free!) at Campbell a couple nights ago. Overall I liked it. It was faithful to most facts, but I didn't think it was terribly faithful to the point of the book. Nevertheless, it had a point of its own. You can hardly fault a movie-maker for taking something other than what I did from a book. I found the nature photography only so-so, and it's bugging me that I can't pinpoint what bothered me about it. Other than that, I thought it was well acted, and I thought the leading actor's avoidance of pregnant pauses and looks was remarkable.
