Who else believes the movie at least deserved an Oscar nomination for best picture? One of the most moving films i've ever seen; I don't think there's another movie that evokes as much emotion in me as Into the Wild does. Brilliantly produced and directed.

I remember it having credible buzz, not least Vedder's excellent soundtrack - which I think was disqualified from contention for Oscars for weird technicalities, though I did see he won a Golden Globe.
I also remember its buzz fading off after wide release. I guess it was too abstract for its time & place.

i've seen the movie 4 times(1st time in 2012) its very special movie and i still can't believe how Emile Hirsch didn't get a nomination for Oscar or something

It's baffling how it was snubbed by all major awards. Emile Hirsch deserved
at least
a nomination. It was the role of a lifetime. Sean Penn's directing was fantastic too.
Not even the Golden Globes recognized it 😞

If into the Wild was nominated for Best Picture, Juno would have been the movie to not get nominated.

It was quite a good year for films. It was up against No Country for Old Men and There will be blood. Should have beaten Atonment for a nom though.
Had this film been made in 2012, it probably would have gotten close to winning.

Hirsch not even getting a nomination is depressing. One of the best performances ever.

Agreed. Best film of 2007, in my opinion.
