Accept yourself, admit the past, and it is a new beginning.

From a philosophical point of view, I think this film is mainly about the formation and solution of problems. It can be found how important the mother is to the heroine. It can be said that it is the death of the mother that gives the daughter the opportunity to grow up alone and become a complete person.

After the death of her mother, the heroine, who seems to have lost the other half of her life, tried to paralyze herself through drug use and promiscuity, and this was the beginning of all her problems: divorce, declining satisfaction with herself, and difficulty in continuing a normal life. And she doesn't want to admit that she is such a person, doesn't want to admit the existence of these problems, avoids problems, and doesn't want to face up to herself and the past, which creates a vicious circle, her problems keep getting worse, and she's getting worse and worse Pain, so in the first half of the film, the heroine often lives in the memories of the past. Until the last day of the hike, the heroine finally admitted her past, reconciled with herself, no longer escaped from these problems, no longer thought that there was a problem with the past, no longer sought the way of redemption, but lived her life seriously. The Lord has truly stepped out of the wilderness of his own life, and everything is the real change. Traveling alone can make people detach from their original living conditions, talk to themselves, and help people think. Whether or not you can comprehend depends on your fortune and the comprehension of your individual mind. Many difficulties encountered by the female protagonist on the road, such as lack of water and money, fear of being raped... Everyone may encounter them on the road and cannot be replicated. But it is the solution of these problems that makes the heroine gradually become stronger, just like the journey of life, get ready and see the tricks.

    Adapted from real people, true stories, yes, the little boy’s singing is very healing.

    In fact, it is quite vain to talk about redemption, and physical suffering is more of a kind of despair. Small people can only try to get rid of their inner pain in this way

Wild quotes

  • [last lines]

    Cheryl: [voiceover] It took me years to be the woman my mother raised. It took me 4 years, 7 months and 3 days to do it, without her. After I lost myself in the wilderness of my grief, I found my own way out of the woods.

    [pause]

    Cheryl: And I didn't even know where I was going until I got there, on the last day of my hike. Thankyou, I thought over and over again, for everything the trail had taught me and everything I couldn't yet know.

    [pause]

    Cheryl: Now in 4 years, I'd cross this very bridge. I'll marry a man in a spot almost visible from where I was standing. Now in 9 years, that man and I would have a son named Carver and a year later, a daughter named after my mother, Bobbi. I knew only that I didn't need to eat with my bare hands anymore. That seeing the fish beneath the surface of the water would be enough, that it was everything. My life, like all lives, mysterious, irrevocable, sacred, so very close, so very present, so very belonging to me. How wild it was, to let it be?

  • Bobbi: I always wanted a room with a view.
