Wild
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 (and
Portland resident) 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.
