Fine Piece

Rating: 8/10 (9 October 2019)

A few days ago I watched The Revenant again - still a fine piece of a movie with strong performances and strong production. But the story reminded me somehow of another movie and per chance I did find out which one: Man in the Wilderness with Richard Harris (a younger audience knows him for his role as Dumbledore in the first Harry Potter movies, the older ones know him from movies like A Man Called Horse, The Guns of Navarone, Mutiny on the Bounty etc.). The story of Revenant got some changes of course, but mainly it is the same story. The old one from 1971 is also a very good and entartaining one, so if you got time give that one a try too and compare both works.
