    Great movie..

    .. it's also £2.99 at Amazon but only worthwhile if you're buying £25+ worth of stuff.

    Freshly graduated from college with a promising future ahead, 22-year-old Christopher McCandless (Emile Hirsch) instead walked out on his privileged life and into the wild in search of adventure. What happened to him on the way transformed this young wanderer into an emerging symbol for countless people. Was Christopher a heroic adventurer or a naive idealist, a rebelious 1990's Thoreau or another lost American son, a fearless risk-taker or a tragic figure who wrestled with the precious balance between man and nature?

    McCandless' quest took him from the wheat fields of South Dakota to a renegade trip down the Colorado River to the non-conformists' refuge of Slab City, California, and beyond. Along the way, he encountered a series of colorful characters at the very edges of American society who shaped his understanding of life and whose lives he, in turn, changed. In the end, he tested himself by heading alone into the wilds of the great North, where everything he had seen and learned and felt came to a head in ways he never could have expected.

    Adapted by Jon Krakauer's acclaimed bestseller Into The Wild.

    So does Play.com actually use some sort of calculation to work out the EUR cost or just use a "this sounds about right" figure

    It's simply an over-inflated rate rounded-up that, if I had to guess, also incorporates thier "free shipping".

    I've just worked it out. They're using a conversion rate of £1:€1.25 and then rounding up to either .49 or .99
