The Revenant

Explorer Hugh Glass is attacked by a bear and left for dead by his companions in the harsh winter of the 19th century. Crawling for weeks through wild terrain, Glass survives driven solely by a thirst for revenge. Iñárritu and Lubezki create, using only natural light, a brutal odyssey that is physically and spiritually exhausting. DiCaprio wins his first Oscar in a role demanding an almost superhuman physical commitment.

Iñárritu and Emmanuel Lubezki created a visual masterpiece shot entirely with natural light. DiCaprio finally has his Oscar.
