Society of the Snow: History vs. Hollywood

[@sheilaomalley4055]

I wouldn't say Society of the Snow is a "Hollywood" movie. The director is Spanish, the actors are all Uruguayan and Argentine. "Alive" is a Hollywood movie.

[@CosasdeOswaldo]

Exactly what I thought.

Reportedly there are some scenes that were shot but deleted from the final cut. Two of them depict actual events: • During the hike to the plane's tail, a blizzard hits the group and Roy Harley tells the others to leave him behind. Nando becomes aggressive and harshly convinces him to return to the fuselage. This is depicted in Alive. • Carlos Valeta was ejected from the plane as it skidded down the slope but didn't die immediately. Injured and in shock, he started walking and didn't hear the other survivors calling his name (the shouting can be heard in the background during the scene with the pilot). He fell into a snowdrift and died of asphyxiation. His body was found on the 63rd day.

[@Adifgreat]

There are more than 600 hours of filming of 'Society of the Snow'. And Roy Harley, disrespectfully depicted in 'Alive' as an anoying crybaby, has always stated that he was never carried by Nando as shown in the 1993 film.

[@toycoma98]

Roberto Canessa was the doctor at the end, Carlitos Paez played his father calling out the names twice.

[@mariarodrigueza1358]

And Nando Parrado is the one that opens the door in the airport to the actor that portrays him

[@alidarotondaro]

There are like 8 survivors playing cameos

[@JannaAnderson-ol4gs]

I noticed how every survivor cameo is in relation to themselves Roberto is treating himself nando opens the door for he’s family and paez is reading the names of his friends and himself and is playing his father

Daniel Fernández Strauch is in the church scene. 'Coche' Inciarte is in the bar where Numa's friends convince him to travel. 'Moncho' Sabella is in the airport, when Liliana and Javier Methol say goodbye to their children. Numa Turcatti's nephew plays Numa's neighbour. Antonio Vizintín and Gustavo Zerbino's cameos were cut out.

This movie is everything and the real story absolutely inspiring!!👏🏻🙌♥️

[@diannebdee]

i think ultimately, the choices Bayona made for this film were the correct ones. Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy largely made the film they wanted to make, not the one that should have been made. The survivors said that film did not resemble anything of what they went through, and most of the survivors and the families of that dead refused to allow their names to be used because of how really bad that film turned out. It's best not do discuss the 1976 film "Survive" as it was clearly exploiting the tragedy with very shoddy effects such as powdered snow. And again with that film none of the real names were used. I am hoping Bayona releases a longer cut of the film.

[@toycoma98]

I like how they called out the names and age as they died.

[@erikyflowers7941]

Yeah, survivors have told Society of the Snow is highly accurate, unlike other movies about the tragedy. That is why all the survivors and family of the ones who died gave permission to use the actual names of everybody in the movie.

[@jerryrehard7711]

The 93 film never had permission to use the names of the dead to begin with so it had nothing to do with the quality of the film. Parrado was a technical advisor on the film and many of the survivors visited the set. The main complaint was that Alive focused too much on Nando and didnt depict the team effort as much as it could have. The new film is arguably better, but it could be just as truly stated that it focuses too much on Turcatti. I enjoyed both films. Both leave a lot of details out and change some situations for dramatic purposes. The Strauch cousins certainly get their due in the newer film but Carlitos has less of a part. Alive did a better job of depicting the injuries suffered by the survivors. Society does a better job of depicting the bleakness and hardship of their ordeal but this is due more so to the style of the directing and cinematography than to any factual errors present in the 93 film. Clunky dialog aside Alive doesnt merit the disdain many seem to want to heap on it. Just my opinion of course.

[@sobrevalorado]

It's a Spanish movie with Uruguayan actors

[@Naty-mi2vo]

No survivor was consulted to write the script of Alive. Even worse, the producers ignored the survivors' disaproval of the script in breach of the contract which stated that they could make the changes they considered necessary. The survivors also thought they were not honouring their deceased friends by not using their real names, so they tried to legally stop the filming, but couldn't. Unlike Alive, ALL of the characters in Society of the Snow have been depicted with great respect.

[@gozdea5548]

According to US Americans everything is either Hollywood or Bollywood :))) Society of Snow gave the "deserved respect" to survivors and deceased much much better than the Hollywood made Alive! I wasn't surprised that all team are local actors (Uruguayan, Argentinian) and Spanish. Society of Snow abbreviate as (SOS).. i don't know if this was intentional but quite impactful!

In the movie I think the flight engineer only appeared once but in real life he survived up until the avalanche

[@5telaine]

Yeah and from what I’ve read there’s no proof at all that he was anything like the character he was portrayed as being in the 1993 movie Alive. In that film he was shown as being a selfish creep who was no help to anyone and acted like some kind of nutter. It showed him snatch a coat that had been put over a young girl to try to keep her a bit more comfortable because she had been so seriously injured from the crash. Until one of the young guys notice and threatened him not to touch it again and he put it back over the girl. I watched another documentary comparing the two films and the narrator said he’d researched it and couldn’t find a single thing about this having happened or anything about the engineer being an asshole the way he is in that film🤷🏻‍♀️ I just thought how angry and hurt you’d be if this wasn’t true and had just been added for effect if you are a family member of this man😕

[@ailem2707]

The mechanic does appear up to the avalanche in STOS, he just blends in with the rest of the guys in the background

[@janetelamas4029]

If surviving the airplane accident was not enough, the plane had to crash on the most magnificent inhospitable place on earth! Cordilheira dos Andes! That is really a very profound moment in their lives, the fact they were considered dead to the authorities and their families but since they hade one another as part of a team that was already entrusted thru the sport, and the fact they were all young . It seems is a lot lessons to learn from this horrific experience. They survived avalanche and 72 days off constant knowing they needed to try to cross that super scary cordilheira / Montain ! Wow !! They really deserve to be Alive 🙏💕🦋

@@moderncloth No -- all of the actors in SoS are Uruguayan, Venezuelan or Spanish. Americans in Alive were just some redneck dumasses from Oklahoma and a few New Yorkers which is stupid. They know nothing of mountains, survival, or Uruguayan life that puts the story in the correct context. A perfect example of the crappiness of Alive is they devoted just 19 seconds to Nando and Roberto's hike --- which is equally as important to the story --- Alive also didn't show Sergio Catalan saving Nando and Roberto, who was the ACTUAL hero of the whole story.

In some ways, the story of the Andes flight tragedy that occurred at October 13, 1972 is more accurate as told in the film Alive! (1993) such as 5 people who died instantly when those sitting in the back row of the seats were thrown from the plane when its tail hit the mountain, as were the 8 people who were killed by an avalanche in the middle of the night at day 17th.
