days and then dying. Both the movie and book of Into the Wild explore the adventure that Chris McCandless takes‚ while the book focuses on comparing Chris to other people and the relationships he had‚ the movie focuses specifically on the life story and adventure of Chris McCandless‚ therefore the movie is better than the book. The number one thing I noticed in the movie that was different in the book is that Carine (his sister) tells the entire story. During the book though‚ the narrator position
