oxford25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 From The Wrap When the lights finally came up though, it was Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s “The Revenant,” which stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy, that left the strongest impression. Shot with only natural light by Emmanuel Lubezki, the period picture looked absolutely gorgeous, not to mention incredibly violent and intense. Eric Vespe @EricVespe · 3m3 minutes ago Favorite footage from the Fox presentation was from Inarritu's The Revenant. Mountain Man DiCaprio fighting for his life in the wilderness.

oxford25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Had to laugh at this tweet, as us Leo fans have always known that Leo can convey so much with just his eyes (Y) DenizcanS. @MrFilmkritik · 4m4 minutes ago Leo showing another side, more range without much dialogue. I think this is Leo's most challenging role so far. #TheRevenant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxford25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Variety's report on today's Revenant footage @Variety_DMcNary “The Revenant,” Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s first film since “Birdman,” received a warm reaction Thursday as Fox unveiled the first footage at CinemaCon. A scraggly Leonardo DiCaprio, who stars as a fur trapper in the 1820s, dominated the footage — which included several battle scenes set along side a river. Fox said Inarritu is shooting in the Canadian wilderness, using only natural light. In his intro, Fox chief Jim Gianopulos — who hosted the hour-long event with new studio co-chair Stacey Snider — noted that the studio has won back-to-back Best Picture Oscars with “12 Years a Slave” and “Birdman.” Megan Ellison’s Annapurna Pictures, New Regency and Brett Ratner’s Ratpac Entertainment are financing the survival drama. Twentieth Century Fox plans to open the film in limited release on Christmas Day next year before a wide release on Jan. 8, 2016. The footage also included glimpses of co-stars Tom Hardy and Will Poulter. Gonzalez Inarritu and Mark Smith wrote the screenplay based on the Michael Punke novel “The Revenant: A Novel of Revenge” published in 2003. The story, set in 1823, centers on a fur trapper who’s mauled by a grizzly bear and robbed by the two men enlisted to stay with him. http://variety.com/2015/film/news/leonardo-dicaprio-revenant-cinemacon-1201478399/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FashionDream Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Thanks for the Variety article. They slipped up when they said they'd release the film next year on Christmas Day. End of this year limited release, early next year wide release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxford25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Some more information as to what the scene they show involved We saw some action footage, with DiCaprio battling what appeared to be Indians. There’s fierce fighting, hand-to-hand and pistol, and the camera is right in there in the action, actually seeming to duck at one point when DiCaprio swings his arm. It’s thrilling stuff, made all the more immediate by the fact that it all looks so real There was no dialogue, and very little by way of sound effects. The whole presentation was visually oriented, and when your visuals are this good, why not? http://badassdigest.com/2015/04/23/cinemacon-the-revenant-is-going-to-win-lubezki-another-oscar/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxford25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 From Hollywood Elsewhere , just what the movie media will love : Arnie versus Gilbert at the Oscars Boxoffice.com‘s Phil Contrino sent the following message an hour ago: “Based on the footage we saw here for Scott Cooper‘s Black Mass and Alejandro G. Inarritu‘s The Revenant, I’ll be very surprised if we don’t see an intense Best Actor race between Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio…very impressive stuff.” A half-hour later I heard from Thomas Schultze, Munich-based critic and correspondent for the German trade magazine Blickpunkt, and he shared the following: “The Revenant footage is breathtaking. It ran between 60 to 90 seconds. A montage of stuff with no dialogue. The whole thing is being shot with natural light…no artificial light of any kind…and my thoughts were that Lubezski is going to be in the running for his third Academy Award, and that the Academy is going to think they’ve given Inarritu the Oscar for the wrong movie. “It’s a survival in the wilderness film, as you know, and DiCaprio has the Jeremiah Johnson look down pat, like he hasn’t shaved or showered in six months…there’s a scene in which the trappers are being attacked by Indians…total chaos, people are dying, they have to escape on some kind of raft. The only movie I could compare it to off the top of my head would be The Last of the Mohicans. Totally authentic and real, and yet with a poetic quality.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
