Description
After college, Eric Saperston bought a 1971 Volkswagon Bus, took his Golden Retriever Jack, and set out to follow the Grateful Dead and work a ski season in Aspen. While out on the road, he called up some of the most powerful and influential people in the world and asked them out for a cup of coffee. What started out as a personal journey to find the answers to life's biggest questions - Why am I here? How can I find happiness? What is success? - quickly turned into something much bigger than he ever had imagined. As the journey unfolded, it attracted the attention of three others: Dave Murcott, Paige O'Brien and Kathleen Kelly. They too felt disconnected and were searching for purpose and meaning in their lives. So they quit their jobs, risked it all and jumped in the bus. One man's summer vacation quickly turned into four people's vocation. This team of eager travelers meandered across the country, from Atlanta, Ga., to Seattle, Wash., shot 500 hours of footage and interviewed more than 200 people in search of wisdom and inspiration from the famous and not so famous. "To know the road ahead, ask those coming back." --Chinese proverb

Inspirational September 5, 2006
This documentary is inspirational and funny at the same time. It encourages you to just ask for help whenever needed. At worst, you can be ignored, at best you will receive the help you asked for - and more.
 Boring, Disappointing, Just OK March 14, 2006

Hey... I bought this hoping to see interviews with Jerry Garcia, and other prominent and famous people yet was disappointed when such footage was not in the film.
From the description it seems like such content is on the dvd but no it is not.
Interesting people are on for seconds, and I only felt an emotion to this film maybe once or twice.
The whole film is about "what do I do with my life, yada, yada"... meanwhile!...!..... the guy who made this film- the main dude in the movie- is makin money off the film. So thanks man, make money off the people (who bought your movie) who really need direction in their life.
And also, thanks for having such a decieving description of your film, on the back of the DVD and on the product description on amazon.

Great idea, but also a great lost of opportunity... you probably have better things to do with your money and your time.

After watching this DVD, I have chosen to share its story with everyone I meet.
The Journey gives us a glimpse of the side of ourselves we normally hide away.
As a to-be college student, this film provided me with so much inspiration. After showing it to my family, they were amazed at how much insight into their life they had gained.
This film is good for students, families, grandparents, educators, and basically anyone who needs assurance life is okay or needs a goal for their life.
The best!!! January 2, 2004
I came across this film 2 1/2 years ago in Atlanta in one of the first showings. I laughed, I cried and I thought. By turning the camera on themselves and showing their positive and negative sides, it allows the viewer to let their guard down and accept the awesome lessons, that this film has to offer. I've seen it
9 times on the big screen, have taken countless friends, who all went back to bring others, and have bought 10 copies to give to friends. This is one film you won't regret buying.
