The story of Captain Ahab's incessant hunt for the white whale known as Moby Dick is well known all over the world, but no movie adaptation has ever managed to do justice to Herman Melville's brilliant novel. The book is half a detailed account of Captain Ahab's descent into madness as told by the sole survivor of his ship's sinking, and half a meticulous and highly philosophical essay about the magnitude of the Whale in the face of humankind.

Moby Dick was never popular, though widely famous indeed. Before becoming an all-time classic, the novel was an absolute failure when it first came out due to its unconventional narrative structure. Nowadays, it's often mistaken for a traditional adventure story, which even gave rise to infamous editions targeted at children, detailing only the sea action sequences and ignoring all of Melville's existential baggage.

Everyone knows the story of Moby Dick,...

Netflix might be known for pumping out a bewildering volume of "content," but the streaming service isn't just breathing new life into forgotten thrillers or showcasing terrible Spanish slashers. Often, amid the deluge of media, Netflix will serve up something decent, and "Society of the Snow" is the perfect example.

Spain's official 2024 Oscars submission for Best International Feature, "Society of the Snow" is the latest movie from "The Impossible" and "The Orphanage" director J.A. Bayona. Thus far, it seems to be the filmmaker's best effort, receiving critical acclaim and a nomination for Best Non-English Language Film at this year's Golden Globes. Now, as of January 4, 2024, it's available to stream on Netflix ... though if you haven't yet watched, you might want to prime yourself for the harrowing story told within.

"Society of the Snow" is a thriller that follows the survivors of a plane crash as they try to stay alive...

The story of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, the plane that crashed over the Andes mountains in 1972, mainly carrying a young team of Uruguayan rugby players expecting to play a match in Chile, has been told several times. Perhaps most famously in 1993’s “Alive” and the stellar documentaries “I Am Alive: Surviving the Andes Plane Crash” and “Stranded: I’ve Come From a Plane That Crashed on the Mountains,” to name just a few.

In 1972, a Uruguayan rugby team flying to a match in Chile crashed in the Andes, and spent over two grueling months surrounded by snow and their dying comrades. In order to survive the ordeal, they resorted to cannibalism. This is a well-known story, told in multiple feature films, books, and "Where are they now?" human-interest news items. It's no exaggeration to say that Gonzalo Arijon's Stranded: I Have Come From A Plane That Crashed On The Mountains is the definitive version. Arijon structures his film as a fairly typical "look back" documentary, with talking head interviews, archival footage, and surprisingly well-done re-enactments. Arijon doesn't use the re-enactments exploitatively, to create a sense of creeping dread or revulsion; he uses them to ground the viewer in the desolation. By the end of the film, the audience knows the layout of that plane wreckage and the ground around it as...
