Into the Wild movie compared to the book


• What parts of the story have been changed (has the order changed?)
• What images (shots) have the most impact)
• What parts of the film made the story clearer to you?
• Music?

• Yes the order has changed because in the book it is all mixed up and even in chapter 2 we found out he dies. It starts out with Chris in the wild,and then it goes all the way back to his graduation at Emery, and shows his parents and sister.He gets mad at his parents for buying him a car, and gives his money to charity. In the book it goes from Chris to Krakauer a lot and switches them up a little, but in the movie it just talks about one person at a time. The movie also starts out in Alaska and he finds the bus early on in it, but in the book he doesn’t find the bus till later on.

•I like the music in this movie. I noticed that I actually have one of the songs from it on my ipod. It is called "Hard Sun". They play it during the movie when he is setting out fo rhis journey into the wild after leaving his parents. It shows the sun during the movie when they play it.
