Music for the Motion Picture Into the Wild

If you were moved by Sean Penn's film of the Jon Krakauer book, you will most definitely appreciate Eddie Vedder's acoustic accompaniment. The songs and movie fit together like wildflowers in a mountain meadow. The music also stands on its own feet, offering an aural journey into the wild.

I got this CD after watching the movie on DVD. We've really enjoyed it and have listened to it frequently. The music stands pretty well on it's own, though the lyrics make more sense if you know/like the movie.

It's way to short. It's over before you know it.

I bought this album on my way home from the theater showing of "Into the Wild." I saw the film after reading the Jon Krakauer book. I read the book after reading the "Outside" article on the film. Suffice it to say, I am into "Into the Wild."

Therefore, I acknowledge being extremely biased. However, I've been listening to this album for more than 6 months, and it retains its attraction.

I have not experienced such a perfect blending of music and film since "Easy Rider." In fact, this is better.

All of the songs are wonderfully lyrical. This is "Rocky Mountain High" for a new generation.

For real fun, grab an acoustic guitar and a capo and wail out "Hard Sun." The intro tickles me to death!

One of the best soundtracks to one of the best movies I have ever seen. Got it that day it came out and still listen to it all the time. It may be short but the music is flawless. Most of the songs might even be described as beautiful. Eddie Vedder is brilliant.

I received the cd soon after ordering it. I ordered it for my daughter's birthday. The problem is I hid it so well that when her birthday came, i couldn't find it, so i had to buy another one. Oh well, when i do find it, it's mine. The cd is great, love Eddie Vedder. There are only 11 songs and i wish there were more. Has American Indian and spiritual touch to it.
I recommend this cd.
