What are your impressions of Chris? Was he noble?
Reckless? Selfish? Courageous? A pilgrim?
My impression? Honestly, I thought he was a little reckless until I learned about his past. Then, I saw him as a coward. He couldn't face his father with the truth, he basically ran away. Also, I thought he was extremely selfish. No, he didn't steal people's cars, but he would befriend so many people and have them love him; then, he leaves them, even after they almost beg him not to go and to stay with them. He could have not gone to Alaska, but instead find family and happiness with people who cared about him. Instead, he leaves everyone who cares about him and never comes back.
I think he should was went home too, to his family. I think right before he died he realized that's where his home is and that is where he should be. I think when he started talking to the older man near the end of the movie was helping him realize people loved him.
