Why watch this film?
Nowadays, with technology, all you need is a large studio and a green screen to have any location in the world. However, Iñárritu did not choose the easy way. Over 90% of the movie was shot in outdoor locations in Alberta (Canada) and Argentina, giving us beautiful images and an impeccable photography that won an Oscar. Another award-winning member of the movie is Leonardo DiCaprio. Maybe this isn't his best performance in his career, but it certainly was the most difficult one physically, due to the fact that the filming was done in the middle of nature. For all these reasons, 'The Revenant' is one of those movies that shows that cinema can still be something real and alive.

From the same director
Amores Perros
Before 'Birdman', this was the film that brought worldwide recognition to Mexican Alejandro González Iñárritu. "Amores perros" is structured by fragmented stories, a resource that the director will repeat in the other films of his "Trilogy of Death": "21 Gramos" and "Babel". The movie was acclaimed internationally, won at the Cannes Film Festival, the Ariel Awards and the BAFTA, as well as receiving Oscar and Golden Globe nominations.
Babel
If you believe that one of the world's great problems is the lack of dialogue, 'Babel' is the movie you are looking for. Iñárritu, director and responsible for the original idea of the script, proposes a story in which the lack of dialogue leads to tragic consequences in different places of the world. A feature film to watch accompanied and then motivate a political discussion over coffee or a beer.
Bardo
We could say that many filmmakers reach the point in their careers where they can afford to make their "8½," referring to Federico Fellini's surreal semi-autobiographical film from 1963. For Alejandro González Iñárritu, one of Mexico's most successful filmmakers on the international scene, this is the movie. In 'Bardo: False Chronicle of Some Truths' tells the story of Silvério (Daniel Giménez Cacho), a renowned journalist and documentarian who finds himself forced to return to his native Mexico, on a journey that will end up testing his existential limits. It is a film with a slow rhythm, sinuous narrative detours and a refined visual style that counterbalance what, by the way, is an enormous comfort and vanity of the director. The final product is never less than fascinating, yes, so those looking to dive into an intense existential journey cannot miss out on experiencing it.
Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)
The backstage of success is not as beautiful as you might imagine. Actors can't seem to shake certain stereotypes or successful roles, interviews are tiresome, there are conflicts and ego clashes, and so on. What 'Birdman' does is take advantage of the recent explosion of superhero films to explore all this complexity. This is not a movie to laugh at but to understand a little bit more those who make us laugh or cry on the big screen.
Drama
Society of the Snow
On October 13, 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, chartered to take a rugby team to Chile, crashes into a glacier in the heart of the Andes.
The Book of Wonders
A beautiful French production that deals with a profound theme in an accessible and sincere manner. The Book of Wonders tells the story of a woman (Alexandra Lamy) whose 12-year-old son falls into a coma. The mother embarks on a journey to fulfill adventures on the wish list as a way to cope with the loss and also to show the beauty of the world. Like any movie of this kind, it has its clichés, but if you're looking for something to warm your heart, this is an excellent choice.
Maestro
When you sit down to watch Maestro, it's natural to expect a biographical film about Leonard Bernstein, the talented and complex conductor portrayed by Bradley Cooper – who also directs. However, what unfolds in the plot is not something like a typical biopic, but rather a nuanced film about the love between Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre (Carey Mulligan). Slow and contemplative, the feature avoids the pitfalls of turning this story into a melodrama in the style of Marriage Story, subtly presenting the emotions. On the contrary, Cooper leaves much implied so that we, the audience, can feel what is happening and not just observe. Therefore, it's a film that demands a lot from the audience, requiring them to engage with the concept and not find it merely monotonous.
NAGA
Stranded amid Riyadh's desert dunes, Sarah, a local Saudi girl, escapes heartaches and the vengeance of a vigorous camel after discreetly sneaking out of her parent's home for a romantic date that landed her astray.
