This movie got so many mixed reviews but I happened to
really, really enjoy it!
Reece really nailed it with this one.
"Driven to the edge by the loss of her beloved mother (Laura Dern),
the dissolution of her marriage and a headlong dive
into self-destructive behavior, Cheryl Strayed (Reese Witherspoon)
makes a decision to halt her downward spiral
and put her life back together again.
With no outdoors experience, a heavy backpack
and little else to go on but her own will,
Cheryl sets out alone to hike the Pacific Crest Trail --
one of the country's longest and toughest through-trails.
