A chronicle of one woman's 1100 mile solo hike taken to recover from a recent catastrophe and a life on the skids. Cheryl Strayed is a self-destructive divorcee who is seeking to conquer her demons. She was raised with an abusive father who her mother leaves and takes Cheryl and her brother. At 22, Cheryl is in college and her mother decides to join her to better her life. But, her mother is suddenly diagnosed with cancer and dies. Cheryl who is married goes into a downward spiral and becomes a heroine addict. Her marriage ends and when she hits bottom she starts the hike. Dark so very dark and sad. I give it an 8. Stars Reese Witherspoon, Gaby Hoffman, Michael Huisman and Marc Vallee.
