Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if, during filming, Witherspoon thought to herself "You want...that Oscar..nomination!" as she was hiking. She was good in this, but I still think her best work is Election. Like Foxcatcher, the film as a whole felt like a giant checklist.Matthew St.Clairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589393934861344591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-18901554068792462432015-01-11T08:56:48.669-06:002015-01-11T08:56:48.669-06:00This has been her most interesting thing in awhile...This has been her most interesting thing in awhile.

I disregarded it because it seems so similar to Tracks, which was fantastic, and I thought nothing could parallel it, but the reviews have won me over.

Wild finally came to my city, so I'm really looking forward to seeing it soon. *crosses fingers*<br /><br />If that woman read the book she would've known there is only one terrifying, incident during Cheryl's hike that comes close to a rape experience - but it doesn't happen. Sad to think how many people might watch the movie and just wonder when a rape scene is going to take place rather than actually paying attention to the story....Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287429151542133314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-73497401680348700832014-12-28T12:01:35.182-06:002014-12-28T12:01:35.182-06:00Gee, i didn't like reese in walk the line at a...Gee, i didn't like reese in walk the line at all. she was decent here, but the movie is so disjointed and hollow at times. i just couldn't get into it. but laura dern is the best in show. i wish there were more scenes with her. i also preferred the story in flashback mode than its present narrative.

My aunt loved that book, and it's been on my to-read list for years, but I never got around to it.<br /><br />I am not generally a fan of Reese Witherspoon, but I liked her in Mud.
