on Cheryl Strayed\u2019s book<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Cast:\u00a0 Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Thomas Sadoski, Michiel Huisman, Gaby Hoffmann<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Screened at:\u00a0 Park Ave., NYC, 11\/6\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Opens:\u00a0 December 5, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve all noticed the young women who wear three-inch heels and who admit that they hate to walk even down the block to the corner supermarket because their feet hurt.\u00a0 Now think: what is the opposite of such a woman?\u00a0 Why, Cheryl Strayed, of course, the author of a Number One New York Times best-seller which was selected for the Oprah book club.\u00a0 The full title is \u201cWild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail.\u201d\u00a0 The book itself is no masterpiece of literature but a simply written travelogue of Ms Strayed\u2019s external and internal trip, a three-months\u2019 solo excursion from the Mexico border north to the Oregon-Washington border, a journey of 1,100 miles.\u00a0 The trip, much of which involved her walk across the hot, dry Mojave Desert until she traversed the snow somewhere in the Sierras, continued to Ashland, Oregon where in 1995 she joined a group of troubadours who refused to admit that the sixties were gone, and then north to complete the journey.<\/p>\n<p>The movie, like the Oprah-lauded book, is like a Hallmark card, the sort that appears targeted, like the memoir, to young women about Strayed\u2019s age of 24.\u00a0 You do not necessarily have to believe that she cured herself of her inner turmoil since, after all, wouldn\u2019t we all indulge in such a venture if it were that easy?\u00a0 And the movie exists primarily, in my opinion, as a study in crackerjack acting by Reese Witherspoon, but as an adventure, it fails to excite.\u00a0 \u201cWild\u201d is like a road trip wherein the passengers go where they have never gone before, run into an assortment of people on the way, and come back with stories to bore their friends and family.\u00a0 And of course to put a kaleidoscope of pictures on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Marc Vall\u00e9e, who has directed the much better \u201cDallas Buyers Club\u201d (about a man who works around protocol to get AIDS victims the help they need and who contracts the disease himself), puts Reese Witherspoon in virtually every frame.\u00a0 Positing that her character became traumatized by the death of her mother (Laura Dern in a fine supporting role) at age 45, she turns to heroin and promiscuity\u2014almost none of which shown in the film\u2014and ultimately considers covering 1,100 miles on foot as a way to heal.\u00a0 Physically, however, she is anything but healed on the trip, suffering broken toenails because of a pair of boots a size too small, several blisters and bruises partly as a result of wearing shorts, and what should have resulted in a hernia given the forty-pound backpack that includes a fold-away tent, a small bottle of iodine to purify water, some dried oatmeal and other bizarre dry meals.\u00a0 However one wonders how someone could have left home to wander like Moses in the desert without a hat or a pair of shades.<\/p>\n<p>The movie has comic moments, opening, in fact, with Strayed in a motel room trying to get that pack on her back but falling on her back and on her face in the attempt.\u00a0 It\u2019s no wonder that a fellow hiker named the pack \u201cThe Monster,\u201d and of course since she is traversing the Pacific Crest Trail she runs into an assortment of people including a friendly farmer who drives her to his home where she meets his wife, gets a hot meal and a shower.\u00a0 While narrowly avoiding the fangs of a rattlesnake, she becomes terrified when running into a pair of men who have lechery in their hearts (they don\u2019t attack her).\u00a0 But she is heartened at regular intervals to stop by a post on the PCT to receive a new pair of boots from REI along with a note from the ex-husband who remains surprisingly friendly with her on an epistolary level despite the breakup of a marriage caused by her serial cheating on him.<\/p>\n<p>The only bit of real humor on the trail occurs when she meets a journalist whose job is to interview \u201chobos.\u201d\u00a0 Though she insists that she is not a hobo, the writer (Mo McRae) repeats that she is the first \u201clady hobo\u201d he has met on the job.\u00a0 The movie, heavy-handed with spiritualism\u2014she regularly quotes Faulkner, Robert Frost, James Michener with voiceovers coming from her head\u2014is graced with a fine performance from Witherspoon but as a narrative, it is little more than \u201cTried this, done that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rated R.\u00a0 115 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York
