The Revenant

The Revenant is an Oscar-winning 2015 film directed by Alejandro Iñárritu, made the year after he won Best Picture for Birdman. The film fictionalizes the story of Hugh Glass (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) who was left for dead in 1823 after being mauled by a bear near the Missouri River. One of the most talked-about scenes in the film involves the bear attack which was achieved using CGI — a dramatically different approach from 1988's The Bear, in which Jim Henson's Creature Shop created an animatronic bear to supplement scenes shot with Bart the Bear.
