I liked Into The Wild, but I seem to have a different opinion than most about it. Why was it depressing? If you wandered off into the Alaskan wilderness without ANY preparation, and subsequently die, I do not really feel so bad. In my opinion, it was just stupidity, or possibly mental illness, but certainly not sad. And then there is also the possibility that he intended to end his life that way. It's like The Grizzly Man. Sure, it can be seen as depressing, but in my opinion, it was a long time coming, sad or not. Know what I mean?
