The Revenant review
The Revenant arrives in cinemas having already earned its own legendary status, particularly for the tales from the set of one of the most harrowing shoots in recent memory, with a ballooning budget and numerous layoffs as well as massive delays in filming. Thankfully the result is worth it.
The latest film by Alejandro G. Iñárritu follows on from the award winning Birdman and is even more of an astounding technical achievement. The director and cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki shot at isolated locations in winter using only available light, with just a few hours of potential illumination every day.
