I've recently watched "Into the Wild." I recommend it. The main character found a way to free himself from being trapped. Vince Vaughn played a great character, unlike his usual comedy roles, this part was much smaller. But I wasn't sure what he was being arrested for. Maybe it didn't matter. It seems that everyone that Alexander Supertrap meets is trapped by something, and longing for their freedom. Alexander Supertrap feels free when he first arrives in Alaska, but later discovers he is far from it. Winter, starvation, and loneliness become his ultimate trap and he realizes he's not free.

As sad as this film is, it still is a great story.
