Movie/film suggestions.

I watched The Revenant last night (my second viewing). Leonardo DiCaprio’s role must be the most physically demanding one I’ve ever seen! I found the film’s music subtle and effective.

I enjoyed The Revenant myself, @bdp24 , and theoretically it is based on a true story and in real life Glass supposedly let bygones be bygones.  I remember a reference to Colter (who I assume was the mountain man/trapper John Colter) (I remember when I was in grade school learning that Colter had spent some time in the area now known as Yellowstone National Park which had then been jokingly referred to as "Colter's Hell" because his stories about that area were viewed by some as outlandish).  After I watched that movie I tried to follow up on the Colter aspect, and I remember reading on the internet that this was one of the inaccuracies of The Revenant as John Colter was not present at the time and event depicted in the movie.  But despite that, I found it an enjoyable watch.

@imatthewj: I liked the story told in The Revenant, but don't have the knowledge required to evaluate it in terms of historical accuracy. One thing I didn't mention was the spectacular scenery in the film. I would love to see it in a theater.

@nonoise , since you are a fan of movies depicting characters and situations in the margins (and outside the margins) of society, have you seen Gone Baby Gone?

With a fairly strong cast (including Casey Affleck, Michelle Monaghan, Morgan Freeman, Ed Harris, Amy Ryan, Amy Madigan) it is a layered drama that explores a blurry line between right and wrong and revolves around the abduction of a toddler in a tough working-class neighborhood in Boston.  This was in my original top eight picks.

@immatthewj Yup. Enjoyed that one too. No one's really all that clean. Always been lured to the dark side of human nature, where it crosses into light. Speaking of which, have you ever seen State of Grace with Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Ed Harris and Robin Wright? Great cops and mob movie with the mob being of the Irish variety. Made in 1990 but still holds up. 

All the best,
Nonoise

I don't think I have, @nonoise .  It certainly has a strong cast.  I just did a search and it is available for free this week on MGM+ or on Tubi, so I am going to check it out before the weekend is over.
