"Happiness is only real when shared"

Two am! It is very late and yet i have to take the time to say i just watched Into The Wild and it is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful experience. It has an immensity of life and love and resonance and emotional and human consequence. It shows an almost obscene amount of skill from Sean Penn as director-writer and from every actor, but as huge as that concrete quantity of talent is, it (willingly and happily) allows itself to be obfuscated by the feel of that film--the way it starts winking at you, nudges and triggers you to pull you in from out of your complacency (but without melodrama, no cheap shots), then takes you very slowly to the place where it just digs into you the way only real things do... Things like getting something or losing it or how you love; and who. It's not the kind of film though that I would dare go into detail talking about beyond this that I have (incoherently) said. I will instead go listen to that Eddie Vedder soundtrack immediately and quietly.
