I caught this one on Sundance yesterday and was riveted!!! The attitude and mentality of these "free spirits" is exactly what I've been feeling for the past year, only I don't have the courage to jump aboard a train and just go. I have considered getting into my car and just working my way from place to place. I totally get the attraction of a life without technology, a life in a squat, with nature all around you. This isn't really a movie about "train-hopping" or about traveling. It's not about squatting or living with nature either. It's a film about people who have chosen a unique and unpopular alternative to the rat race of our computerized and wealth seeking society. It's a film about breaking the rules of society and living life on your own terms. Hobos, gypsies, whatever you want to call them, they are living what appears to be a facinating life. I envy them. I'm feeling really rebellious at this time in my life, and it's nice to know others share my feelings.
