Based on a true story of the son of a NASA scientist. The university educated son becomes a hobo and comes across as an arrogant hippie type that travels quite a bit and ends up in Alaska and stays in an abandoned school bus. This long 2 and 1/2 hr film left out the interesting end in the book where he was not "in the wild," but in almost a suburbia with a small town less than six miles a way--he should have figured that out. Great acting, good scenery, and overall well developed script.
