Plot Summary: In "Wild," director Jean-Marc Vallee ("Dallas Buyers Club"), Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon ("Walk the Line") and Academy Award nominated screenwriter Nick Hornby ("An Education") bring bestselling author Cheryl Strayed's extraordinary adventure to the screen. After years of reckless behavior, a heroin addiction and the destruction of her marriage, Strayed makes a rash decision. Haunted by memories of her mother Bobbi (Academy Award nominee Laura Dern) and with absolutely no experience, she sets out to hike more than a thousand miles on the Pacific Crest Trail all on her own. "Wild" powerfully reveals her terrors and pleasures - as she forges ahead on a journey that maddens, strengthens, and ultimately heals her.

Watched it on Bluray with the wife the other day. Very bizarre movie. Not my cup of tea. Way too artzy for my taste.

Although I must say I was surprised to see Reese Witherspoon nude in some pretty intense scenes. Never thought she would bare all in a movie.

My experience was similar. I stumbled upon this film when researching the PCT. I was expecting a hiking movie, which this really isn't. Decent artzy film though.
