Though this scene and the film don’t specifically or intentionally reference faith or God it’s 100% obvious that this was a Divinely orchestrated appointment that Cheryl had to be prepared for. Throughout the entire trail to this point, God was working on her scarred soul and broken heart. My faith and personal experience with the realities of this life along with God’s Love has shown me that He was by her side every step of the trail as well. Faith in a loving Creator is the only way I can explain how that 6 year old boy could have reached Cheryl’s deepest soul and relate to the specific pain, suffering and sorrow that they both had in common. Not to mention the perfect timing for their life altering meeting on the PCT at that exact moment. ❤ Thanks for sharing this remarkably deep and tender exchange from a beautiful film.
This movie came out the same year my mother passed away of cancer and they showed the trailer on Tv and it hit me so hard when she says " she was the love of my life". I now have a husband and two children and they are also the love of my life, but my mother was like a part of me that was brutaly ripped away.
god i remember watching this when i was at the lowest point in my life and a ladybug 🐞 suddenly appeared on my leg. i was bawling men. i still think of that day until now. i am going through a lot of things right now but i know i can do it problems dont stay problems. this scene and that ladybug is my constant reminder .
That happened to me too, a yellow ladybug landed on my hand/palm while I wad crying out my soul in nature bcuz I feared for my life due to something I was going through and that ladybug when she landed I knew immediately it was a sign from the universe and i felt safe and loved in that moment, it was such a comfort ♥️
This is an old song but each time I see this movie and hear this young boy sing this song, it brings me to tears!!!!😢 Its crazy how an old song can be so timeless!💕 This song was originally penned: "The earliest known written manuscript of the lyrics to “Red River Valley” were found in Iowa bearing the notation of the year 1879."
The actress who plays the boy's grandmother says so much and everything she needs to in that one closeup of her face after the boy says he's not supposed to talk to strangers. Incredible acting.
It was a hit and was nominated at Oscars for a couple of categories including best actress and best supporting actress. What mainstream recognition are you talking about?
You nod with your head, say "Hello" and move along without doing anything else damn it. If I wanted to talk to people I would not be in the Wilderness! Did that person had his bags carried by a Bear? NO, do not stop and ask him where did he got the Bear! Just nod with the head say "Hello" and move along.
Saw this clip again after many years. So utterly amazed by little Evan. (who is now a teen) How immensely proud Pam and the late Owen (Evan's dear parents) must have been seeing their son in this film when it came out! I'm blown away again!
I read her memoir...Cheryl Strayed...as a man it touched my soul...I hated myself for so long...this scene is about forgiving yourself...it healed and broke in so many ways I cannot articulate😪

I was watching this movie and constantly being reminded of my friend who lost her son. He was a twin and she has been lost ever since that day. She always called them her 'Suns' instead of 'Sons.' His name was Kyle. When it came to this scene, Kyle saying his name and then singing about taking away the sunshine I broke down and cried like a baby. It was like I experienced a little bit of her pain and it was truly awful.
IDK why I'll cry when I listen to this song every time since I became an adult， especially when I meet some life problems. Still, this song is classic, and this movie scene is a masterpiece.
2:10 you knew right then that she was going to be okay. When we all recognize we are vulnerable and in need of others, we free ourselves

Ce passage est vraiment bouleversant!!
It takes a lot to make me cry. But for some reason this just hits the right chord.
america is a beautiful continent.
Just wished that the movie was mostly filmed on the real PCT.
This movie came out the same year my mother passed away of cancer and they showed the trailer on Tv and it hit me so hard when she says " she was the love of my life". I now have a husband and two children and they are also the love of my life, but my mother was like a part of me that was brutaly ripped away.

You know what I would do? I would get a tattoo of a lil ladybug in the exact place where it landed so youll never forget
That happened to me too, a yellow ladybug landed on my hand/palm while I wad crying out my soul in nature bcuz I feared for my life due to something I was going through and that ladybug when she landed I knew immediately it was a sign from the universe and i felt safe and loved in that moment, it was such a comfort ♥️
To this day, this film is masterful. RIP Jean-Marc. I miss you so much.
Pioneering waste of a camera here
Oh, how sadly I relate to the final 10 seconds . . . . .
Nice movie
This scene broke my heart. I was watching it on a plane one night and I couldn’t stop the tears. Such a beautiful movie.

This is the scene where she sees her wounded inner child and then heals her inner child ❤ love this scene, my favorite in the movie.

Yes exactly right. ❤
He sings it better than anyone else 👍
Stunningly beautiful scene in an incredibly moving film. It exists in us all. Living your best life. Choose it and resist anger

Impressed
I think she let it all go at this moment.
This track hits hard....
ㅠㅠㅠ
i hope someday that innocence will breaks my confused mind
beautiful scene
that boy needs an Oscar he straight broke my heart
"Me neither."
I don't understand why this movie doesn't have hardly any mainstream recognition.
The book does
It was a hit and was nominated at Oscars for a couple of categories including best actress and best supporting actress. What mainstream recognition are you talking about?
The point is can you really forgive yourself? If you can, you will see some other things that most of us don't see
You nod with your head, say "Hello" and move along without doing anything else damn it. If I wanted to talk to people I would not be in the Wilderness! Did that person had his bags carried by a Bear? NO, do not stop and ask him where did he got the Bear! Just nod with the head say "Hello" and move along.
What's the story here? Why is she crying?
Watch the Movie!!!👌
that ‘god i miss you’ line related
Saw this clip again after many years. So utterly amazed by little Evan. (who is now a teen) How immensely proud Pam and the late Owen (Evan's dear parents) must have been seeing their son in this film when it came out! I'm blown away again!
Thats My Cousin Evan!
❤️❤️
I read her memoir...Cheryl Strayed...as a man it touched my soul...I hated myself for so long...this scene is about forgiving yourself...it healed and broke in so many ways I cannot articulate😪
This scene broke me ...I've struggled with self h ap00
while listening to a boy singing, she feels something elusive...
This is so well done.
may i know the song that the boy sang?
This song was originally penned: "The earliest known written manuscript of the lyrics to “Red River Valley” were found in Iowa bearing the notation of the year 1879."
Name this Song please

The little boy goes to my school irl lol. They in high school now
I sometimes visit this page to hear this song🥺 So comforted..ty
Like no other movie scene I've ever seen, this scene destroys me.
IDK why I'll cry when I listen to this song every time since I became an adult， especially when I meet some life problems. Still, this song is classic, and this movie scene is a masterpiece.
