This movie is so special for so many reasons...

It's kinda hard to look back at a movie like "The Wild Life" and not find yourself all nostalgic and wishing you could go back in time.

Thinking about a time when a high school student could be able (or close enough ) to rent his own apartment, when NOT EVERY SINGLE THING had to be a political statement about everything on Earth, when Eddie Van Halen would score a movie written by Cameron Crowe... If someday, or better yet... when someone in a suit in Hollywood realizes that this movie haven't had any remake yet they'll probably do it as "a very militant high school student runaway from his abusive parents to find himself and learn about the world's social problems" and probably cardi b or Lana del rey would do the music. Something like this or worse.

Watch "The Wild Life" and remember that life on Earth can be better than it is right now.
