Tonight on TV: This is the movie that earned Leonardo DiCaprio the Oscar for Best Actor

In 2001, producer Akiva Goldsman acquired the rights to Michael Punk’s manuscript, which was published a year later. under the name It’s a ghost, it is based on the true story of trapper Hugh Glass: left for dead by his teammates after a bear attack, the latter traveled more than 300 km to betray him. A heroic fate that also inspired the 1971 feature film Wild Convoy.

Several director-actor duos are consistently associated with the project: Park Chan-wook and Samuel L. Jackson, followed by John Hillcoat and Christian Bale. Only in 2011, the director Alejandro González Iñárritu was officially appointed and the main role went to Leonardo DiCaprio.

While he was considering Steve Jobs’ shoes, the actor preferred to devote himself to The Revenant, despite the difficulties associated with shooting in natural environments (especially in Canada) in temperatures that could drop to -30°.

By his own admission, this is a film “The most difficult in his career“. The actor admitted that “from icy rivers“have”He slept in the carcasses of animals“and have”He regularly ate raw bison liver“.

In this way, Leonardo DiCaprio conveys an animalistic interpretation, magnified by the hostility of open spaces and the virtuosity of shots. A memorable performance that finally earned him recognition at the 88th Academy Awards, where he was awarded the coveted statuette for Best Actor – an award he was always denied despite his near-flawless filmography.

average 4.2/5, Revenant is a feature film by Alejandro González Iñárritu that is best rated by AlloCiné viewers.
