#TheRevenant (2015)
A frontiersman on a fur trading expedition in the 1820s fights for survival after being mauled by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team.
Cinematographer #EmmanuelLubezki with Steadicam operator #ScottSakamoto and an inquisitive wolf on location.
I first saw The Revenant when it was released digitally, but I couldn't finish watching it on TV in one go. I thought it was boring and monotonous and that it was made especially for the Oscars 🤢.
Having now watched it on the big screen as part of a 'classic' programme at my local cinema, it was a completely different story. The visuals and camerawork alone are worth watching it for. But only on the big screen.
