SPOILER AHEAD (Highlight To Read):
I found Into The Wild to be a very powerful movie for me. Chris's realization after 100 days in the wild, "Happiness only when shared", really stuck with me and I thought that was a very important moment... even the most solitary of loners like Chris eventually found that he was simply not happy without others to share in his happiness.

I couldn't agree more (with your spoiler), I watched the movie twice. The first time I just thought it was pretty stupid, but it really sunk in the second time. I'm very independent and more recently have started to feel similar feelings to that.
