It struck me that four of the movies nominated for Best Picture at this year's Academy Awards have all had their stories essentially explored on the big and small screens before.
Let's take The Revenant. Inspired by true events and Michael Punke's novel of the same name, the film chronicles the almost unimaginable ordeal of fur trapper Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio), who was mauled by a grizzly bear and left for dead by his men in the frozen wilderness of 1823 America ... only to survive and then seek his revenge.
Leo won an Oscar for The Revenant as did the film's director Alejandro G. Iñárritu and cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki. But you've probably never heard of Man in the Wilderness, a 1971 western that starred the original Dumbledore, Richard Harris, as a fictionalized version of Hugh Glass.
