Christopher McCandless

they did it for Hollywood and to save Chris's reputation .

As you watch the movie , you'll notice Emile is wearing a gold watch is several shots. that watch is the actual watch that chris owned . he left it on the dash of the truck that dropped him off at the end of stampede trail . the owner loaned it to peann for the movie. i read that on a web site
