Great movie
27 October 2017
What can I say? I really liked this movie of two disparate strangers suddenly cast into a crisis where they are entirely dependent on one another for survival and to get to safety. Elba and Winslet performed magnificently in this movie about the rigors of surviving in the mountainous winter wilds when their pilot has the poor manners to die of a heart attack and crash their plane. It was really tacky of him. The dog, unnamed throughout, really deserves an Academy Award too. I don't want to give away spoilers, so I won't, but it's not only a movie about them surviving, but a movie about what these two find inside themselves to hold onto. Wonderfully done, but (I know the movie ran a bit long by today's standards) they really should've fleshed out more than they did in the last half-hour of this one. It's well worth the time to see it!
