I can't believe there's not already a topic for this movie!
Reese Witherspoon plays Cheryl Strayed, who's 2012 memoir (on which the film is based) recounts her 1,100-mile hike along the Pacific Crest Trail. From Rotten Tomatoes:
"With the dissolution of her marriage and the death of her mother, Cheryl Strayed has lost all hope. After years of reckless, destructive behavior, she makes a rash decision. With absolutely no experience, driven only by sheer determination, Cheryl hikes more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, alone. WILD powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddens, strengthens, and ultimately heals her."
We caught a matinee showing this afternoon and my wife, daughter and I all loved it! Witherspoon's performance is fabulous. She definitely deserves a nod from the Academy.
The Booth Bijou gives 'Wild' 4.5 out of 5 stars!
