" The society of the snow " is not a remake of " Alive ". Fist is a real story about Uruguayan people who lost in the Andes Everest. Alive have some parts that are more accurate that the new movie, but are little ones, like avalanche when they sleep, and the shoes part. Other ones are pure fantasy. They don't sepeak, don't act and don't look like us ( Uruguayan ppl). But the new movie have latino Rioplatense actors ( almost Argentinan), and the major rol is play by a Uruguayan. Even the survivors play little roles in the film.
In Uruguay we are only 3 million ppl so or media and audiovisual are not development at all, so is a good decision to have a director from Spain.
My only complaint, I would have included more Uruguayan actors. "Numa" played by Enzo Vogrincic is a Uruguayan theater actor, and have a high level, for sure are others actors waiting for that big chance. Actually I'm happy that he has a good reception.
Sorry for my bad English.
