Directed by Alejandro G. Inaritu, based on the novel by Michael Punke, The Revenant (2015) received widespread praise upon its release. The revenge story is loosely based on biographical events in the life of Hugh Glass, a frontiersman who survived being mauled by a grizzly bear in 1823. The film mixes the true events with fiction in a combination that works extraordinarily well. The cinematography is superb, capturing the grittiness of early 19th Century frontier exploration. Leonardo DiCaprio deservedly won the Best Actor Academy Award for his work in the lead role. The supporting cast is great as well, including Tom Hardy, Domhnall Gleeson and Will Poulter.
