Mixed Feelings

Last weekend I just watched a very inspiring movie, Into The Wild. The story was about Alex, a young man who left his normal life -family and collage- looking for a truly happiness, I guess. I watched it on the Fox Movies channel while the movie already playing about an hour anyway. There is a plot of this story back to the past. He used to called Chris when his parents had a big fight in the house. I thought he just can't resist that kind of condition so he decided to escape. He left his home and there's a part he said he'll go to Alaska. Sounds crazy, right?

With full of curiousity, I kept watching this movie.

Alex -or maybe Chris in the past- met many people on the way he went to Alaska. He wrote his journey in a book. He met a guy who love to read a book and gave him some books about live in the wild. He also met an old man who never want to explore the world more because of personal excuse. Many people want to help him to go to Alaska but Alex prefer to took a job so he can save some money for his journey. He was so independent and smart so unwittingly had inspiring many people he met.

The climax of the story was when Alex really trapped in the wild on the way he went to Alaska. No animals to be hunted, ate the wrong plants in the forest, starving, and money was not worth at all. At first he thought he could handle it, but he's not that strong. In the weakest condition, he kept wrote his note in the book. Suddenly, the plot back to the past again. Yeah, Alex remembered some happy memories about his family, friends, and many people he met. He smiled, but tears fell down to his cheeks too. I wonder if he just regret about his decision to left home that made him trapped in the wild or it's a tears of joy that he finally know about a trupy happiness although he hadn't reach Alaska. The last scene of this movie had aswered my curiousity when in the weakest condition, he tried to write the last sentence before he left this world forever, 

"Happiness only real when shared."

Mixed feelings.

The fact, it is a true story and there was a real Alex! The story was addapted from his note when he found  died in the wild. I was stared at the TV although it already showed the credit title. Seriously, it's such a big regret if I were Alex :( Why a smart and independent young man who had inspiring many people had to left this world alone in the wild? :( It's a very sad ending although finally he found the meaning of a truly happiness.
