I'm sure somebody has already told you this but eating snow is not a solution to being dehydrated. It has something to do with the energy it takes to melt the snow in your mouth burns more water in your system than it's taking in with the snow. I'm obsessed with this movie and I've already watched itthree times and it's entirety and countless reaction videos and behind-the-scenes videos. These people have made me so grateful to be who I am and where I am and to have my life.
They heard the noise and woke up. Roy was the first one to get out of the snow because he was actually getting on his feet when it came. He was the one who started taking everybody out. That part where he gets out of the plane after the avalanche is also true. He said that he could hear his friends screaming but was disoriented and he went out and when he realized he could be the last survivor and be there alone, he got in and desperately started digging with his hands to try to save his friends.
The fact that this was not nominated for Best Cinematography, Best Score, and Best Sound Design is criminal. Unfortunately, foreign language films are often overlooked in categories other than Best Foreign Language Film. I was hoping Parasite's wins a few years ago would have changed that, but nope.
ENZO TIENE ESA ESENCIA DE NUMA SE LE NOTA APARTE DE SER UN EXELENTE ACTOR . LA PARTE MAS DURA Y TRISTE CUANDO SABIA QUE NO VOLVIA Y DEJO ESA CARTA Y EL VERSICULO . DE JUAN. LA NOTA ESTA EN URUGUAY .MUSEO DE LOS ANDES . EL PUEBLO CHILENO EXEPCIONALES PERSONASSS ME ENCANTA SU GENTE ❤❤❤ .
This movie deserves all the awards. Amazing performances, cinematography, make up, sound design and score. And the fact that this is a real story and that it was treated with so much respect. I can’t believe it only got TWO Oscar nominations.
I'm spanish, the actors are from Uruguay but the director is spanish (so the movie is considered a spanish movie), here in Spain we have our own awards it was nominated for 13 of them and won 12 😊
If it is any consolation, the Spanish version of the Oscars (Goya) just happened this weekend, and this movie essentially won everything, including Best Movie, Best Director, Best New Actor for the guy who interprets Roberto, etc... in total they won 12 categories. It is now the third most condecorated Spanish movie in those awards! And very much deserved.
The film is a cinematic masterpiece, not only because of the aesthetics, art, photography, make-up or script, but because they managed to tell the story as real and truthful as possible, to the point that the survivors actively participated in it and say that when they see it they relive in their minds everything that happened. It is wonderful the way in which Bayona manages to show the harshness of what happened with an artistic touch and a strong emotional charge and for the first time not only highlighting the figure of the survivors as heroes but also those who died and did not make it out of the mountain, which is why Numa's voice as narrator is so important. Each of the actors met the real person they were playing and most of them managed to create a bond with them, moving from interpretation to reality and giving the importance it deserves to what each survivor felt, because as they have already said, each one remembers the mountain in a unique way.
“Let’s not forget about the ones who didn’t make it either”. You probably didn’t notice when you made this statement, but that’s the reason why Bayona chose to tell the story from Numa’s perspective, because he wanted to give a voice to those who died. Also, Numa is well remembered by the survivors as someone who did everything he had to help others, for him, it was about the others, not himself. He didn’t injure his leg by trying to escape the plane after the avalanche, but because someone accidentally stood up on his calf and caused him a huge bruise that he never recovered from. He then got two open ulcers of the size of a golf ball. He felt miserable most of the time because he was unable to help and didn’t want to eat, he basically stopped fighting for his life. He actually never started that expedition to the tail, even though he wanted to, but Roberto, the doctor, who was 19 years old at the time, categorically told him he was not in condition to walk and he had to stay, to what Nando, who was 22 at the time, agreed with. He smoked one box of cigarette per day while he was in Los Andes (maybe more before the accident). He was a man of Faith and a devoted Catholic. Numa’s real house is the one you see in the movie when Numa is arriving on his bike and greeting his dog, and the man walking in front of his house is Numa’s real nephew. I started reading the comments before watching the reaction and I have to say, I was skeptical I was going to like it. As a Hispanic, this story is closed to my heart. I was not even born when this happen, but this is one of those stories that transcend times and that we know of since very early in our lives, so, I was a little concerned your reaction would come up as disrespectful. I got to say that I love it. You made me laugh and with that statement you made, you told me that you really understood the message. And on the top of that, getting that scene where Carlitos Páez (one of the real survivors) portrays his father and reads the names of the survivors, was a beautiful touch to end your reaction. And to finalize, I was as mesmerized as you with the filmography of this movie, it is shamed it was not nominated for an Oscar in that category.
9:53 I KNOWW RIGHTTT such a shame this movie wasnt nominated to Best Picture or something 😭 14:37 actually there was a guy who was thrown from the plane (kinda the same thing that happened to Gaston) and actually survived but he couldnt find the rest of the crew, got lost and die because of the cold. I can't remember his name tho 18:26 fun fact (not so fun): Numa was claustrophobic too, that's why he was so desperate to get out of that place. Another interesting fact is that Nando (the one who went in that insane 10 days walk in the mountains) was in a coma because he had a skull fracture and everyone thought he was dead. He woke up three days after and saved everyone.
The one that was thrown from the plane, survived and disappeared in the snow (nobody know what really happens, the survivors have different theories) was Carlos Valeta. You can hear the survivors screaming his name in the scene where the pilot tells Numa “que Dios los acompañe”. Unfortunately, the subtitles in English does not capture that moment. Valeta’s name is translated as “help”.
The guy who disapeared in thsnow just after being ejected is Carlos Valeta. He tried to walk towards them, but end up drowning in deep snow. His body will be found severals days after
The survivors who almost die at the avalanche, say that after the fear of dying buried alive passes, there came a peace and even a great pleasure. Their struggle was ended.
Pugga, the man saying the names at the end is Carlitos Paez, one of the survivors, playing his own father and saying his own name. The doctor behind Roberto Canessa in the hospital when they get rescued is the real Roberto Canessa. And the man opening the door for Nando at the airport is the real Nando. Daniel Strauch is in the church in the beginning. Jose Luis Inciarte is in the bar reading a newspaper. Gustavo Zerbino is the coach in the beginning. And Joaquin Turcatti is Numa's neighbour.
At times like this I am glad I am cosy inside, wrapped in warm clothes and drinking tea! Greetings from Spain, nunca olvidaremos a los héroes de los Andes, incluidos aquellos que no pudieron regresar
this is my movie of 2023, i felt such a wide range of emotions the entire journey. for a situation that seemed so bleak and hopeless, these people found faith in each other. really hope it wins best international feature at the oscars!
Thanks for the reaction! I know some can be upset at the jokes, but i took it as you coping with the disturbing and uncomfortable situations they had to go through 👍🏾:)
Interesting facts for you, so you can get more feeling from this movie: - 3 of the real survivors actually made cameos in this movie: Nando Parrado opening the door at the airport, Carlitos Paez as his own father reading the names of the survivors, and Roberto Canessa being one of the doctors welcoming them at the hospital. - The survivors said this is the closest representation of what they lived. - This movie (although we have another 2 or 3 movies about this story) helped the relatives of the dead to really understand the feeling and healing from this situation. - Numa being the protagonist it just makes the perfect sense. His dead, for the survivors (told by themselves) was the most painful. For us, the fact that he is telling us the story, but he is the last to die and for just a injury after two months of trying to stay alive. For them, it was the push they needed to realize that they had to start looking for help. - The rescue actually took 2 days. The helicopter took a few of them, and the rest had to wait to the next day to be rescued. - ( 34:15 ) Gustavo Zerbino, the guy who doesn't want to leave without his suitcase, actually put related items of the dead inside it, to bring something to the families of the ones who didn't make it. If you watch again, you see him saving and naming all the stuff. That's why the luggage was so important to him. - Talking about Gustavo, when the rescuers arrived, he started to show them the bodies and to what person belonged to. They said "you don't have to do that, it's not important" and he replied "it was very important". Also, they movie is nominated for two Oscars! "Best International Film" and "Best Make-Up and Hairstyling". Hopefully it wins both! There is so many things that were not included (of course, it's just a movie) but if you look up more into it, you can be amazed over and over again. Thank you for watching! Greetings from Argentina.
The man who called for his dad when he died is the only one whose body was recovered and buried in Uruguay. The rest of them stayed in the Andes mountains.
I also couldn't get over the resemblance of Numa's actor to Adam Driver. An absolutely outstanding film. The movie "Alive" came out in 1993, which also tells this same tale, staring Ethan Hawke as Nando Parrado. The crash scene in both movie versions is horrifying to watch and left me screaming at the sickening sounds. Everything about this story is haunting, and the idea that they survived beyond the first night is simply incredible. I love your channel, and your commentary is a riot. 🙂 You did a great job with the editing. I can only imagine how long it took.
Hay varios cameos en la película,Nando Parrado es quien abre la puerta en el aeropuerto a su madre, su hermana, El que dice los nombres de los sobrevivientes es Carlos Paez(haciendo el papel de su padre), Roberto Canesa es el doctor que va detrás de el actor que hace su papel en la vida real,y varios más actúan, también la casa de Numa Turcatti es la misma...💔🙏🙏🙏❤️
Daniel Fernandez está en la misa del principio. Moncho en el aeropuerto. Tintin tambien. Coche está en el Bar donde se reunen Numa, Gastón, Pancho y Alfredo Cibils que no viaja al final.
I didn’t even know about this movie existing. I’m familiar with this story from Alive back in the 90’s, although doing a search online says SOTS is much more bleaker and emotional. I haven’t seen this yet, although I’m watching right now, regardless.
Actual survivors said they didn´t like "Alive" at all, that movie didn´t tell the real facts as they were. However, the actual survivors stated that SOTS tells the story as it really happened, the suffering they passed through was for real. Poor guys.
@@erikyflowers7941 I know. Alive sugarcoated the experience, not portraying the emotional impact on those affected accurately or respectfully. I’m glad this was more grounded in reality.
@@digidv85a few of the survivors made a cameo in SOTS. You will see Nando Parrado opening the airport’s door to the actors playing as his father, sister, mother and himself. Dr. Roberto Canessa is at the end of the movie, dressed as a doctor receiving the actor that plays him in the movie. And the most notable is Carlitos Páez Rodriguez, who portrays his own father, Carlos Páez Vilaró. He is the one reading the names of the survivors.
The first time I watched this, I was in shock, going into this movie I was like "A true life survival movie, nice." I legit thought they made it out in 2 weeks~ as I've never even heard of this accident/event ever. After watching, I felt the pain, depression, angst...the terror, the anxiety and horror of going through something of this scale. It's horrific, and it's shot beautifully, and I think that's what made it harder to watch. The cinematography is AMAZING but the idea of not being able to go anywhere is heavy. I cried/loved when Numa died, showed us the fragility and random nature of death. Unexpected and very real. Great reaction pugga. Even if this video doesn't do well, I'll be here with a shovel to dig you out of the snow. Thank you for the reaction ❤❤
I haven't cried this much during a film in a hot minute... didn't love that. My friggin sinuses are still in recovery. 😢 But wow, what a powerful gut punch of a film. I watched it last night so I could watch reactions today, and yours was the first one I watched. (Then Chu's.) Love your reactions, as always, friend. I knew your sense of humor would help me find a bit more levity. ✌🏻🖤🌻 You're appreciated. - Owl 🦉
I cannot describe how shocked I am with the disrespect you are showing to this accident. It was something that REALLY happened, those people really DIED and others suffered, and your reaction for more than half of the movie is LAUGHTER??? If you do not care about my opinion it's alright think what you want abt me, but you can't be disrespecting the victims of this accident, either the survivors or the deceased people. You also can't say "it's just a movie", IT ISN'T. It's a real life accident told trough this movie, in which even some of the survivors are in the cast.
There’s a fact: that one of the survivors (I don’t remember his name) said the he had set a date (December 24th of 1972) to commit su!c!d3 but they were rescued one day before, so he didn’t try to.
i just finished this yesterday, had to stop a couple times & come back. the tragedy of it all is so overwhelming. bless all that were aboard & the men who’s bravery saved so many. if i’m not mistaken, 15 of the 16 survivors are still alive. I hope they have found some sense of peace.
14 of the 16 survivors are still alive. José Luis “Coche” Inciarte died in June 2023. He made a cameo in the movie and Bayona was able to show him the movie before he passed. He was battling cancer for several years.
Empecé a ver la reacción pero a medida que avanzaba el video habian demasiados chistes fuera de lugar que me parecían una falta de respeto para la historia. Hay que saber que no en todas las circunstancias se deben hacer bromas.
Probablemente no sepa que pasó de verdad, creerá que es otra peli de supervivencia y ya, desde el principio se nota que no sabe nada del contexto de la peli. No te lo tomes tan personal y ya, no lo hace de mala fe.
@@sasuke1999lol Es que aunque no sepa que es historia real la película es obviamente un drama y no muestra cosas que ameriten reírse o burlarse. He visto otras reacciones de gente que tampoco sabían que era una historia real y así y todo no hacían chistes por show. Pero bueno... En fin... Será su estilo. Mala mía por no saber, RU-vid me sugirió el video. Pero definitivamente no lo voy a seguir.
I honestly didn't know this movie existed until yesterday. Watching this video is making me glad I have no plans to fly anywhere any time soon. Or ever.
Three of the survivors made cameos in the movie: - Fernando "Nando" Parrado: opens the airport door to his character at the beginning of the movie. - Roberto Canessa: Plays a doctor when they are received at the hospital because he is a doctor in the real life. - Carlos Paez Rodríguez: Represents his own father (Carlos Paez Vilaró) when he reads the list of survivors reading the name of his own son (“Carlitos Miguel Paez, my son”). And they were there for 72 days. On the first day of rescue, they took some of them and a group of rescuers stayed who set up a tent a little away because of the smell. The next day they rescued the others. Hugs from Argentina. 🤗
You didn't cry because you protected yourself with humor. Good reaction, although it was very borderline disrespectful in some parts. You must understand that for people who grew up with this story, who know most of the survivors, have read all the books and are fond of the "characters" especially in countries like Uruguay, Argentina and Chile, this is a very respected and the issue of food is greatly respected. But I understand that the emotional connection with the story touches them in another way. I also subscribe, I guess I will enjoy you more in other types of movies that don't affect me so much, because this movie stays in my heart.
That lizard that you called a dragon is kinda funny because the lizard species is called bearded dragon and I have one myself and his name is toothless
I'm so glad you did a reaction to this, not many channels have yet and it's such a beautiful film. The director (who also directed The Impossible) spoke to survivors and family members of the victims, in order to make this as realistic as possible. I believe 14 of the survivors are still alive. Nando and Roberto both wrote books about their experiences, and both have bit parts in this film, as well as Carlitos (he plays his own father, announcing the names of the survivors on the radio). And because you brought it up, constipation was an issue 😄 Apparently one of them went more than 30 days without 💩.
It was a very famous event worldwide, it has been talked about for years. In fact many documentaries, interviews, books, newspapers, magazines, and 3 movies were made, this new one is the third one, you have the other more known movie, ALIVE the Hollywood version, made in the 90s with a young Ethan Hawke, it would be good if you react it too, to compare.
Wow, I loved this movie so much that I've already watched it 5 or 6 times and on all those times I ended up crying, I can't imagine what the reactions of their families and the survivors would be like T - T The Snow Society movie is really a work of art J.Bayona shined more than ever👏❤️
That "snow with pimples" is an indicator of ankle breaking man trapping holes through rocky dangerous terrain. You should never walk or ski through mounds like those.
Amo esta película, en latinoamérica nos han contado esta historia real tantas veces, nos la sabemos muy bien y se siente increíble ver como los extranjeros disfrutan y admiran la historia de los sobrevivientes de las Cordillera de los Andes.
I disagree, despite there being a couple of jokes in this video. By the end, I was completely brought into it and the story. I've now gone on to watch the documentary about it and was not aware how accurate the film was, I barely knew anything but sorry if this is how the video comes across to you 👍
Yeah, this is not the movie to try out your stand up comedy routine or whatever. This is a tragedy that happened to real people. The “jokes” are in such poor taste.
@@mylamename14 this comment in in poor taste ! People deflect with humor when confronted with something so heavy no everyone has a stick up their butt! Atleast he’s putting himself out there and in the words of Nando himself “celebrating life”
@@mylamename14 In a general aspect, I somewhat agree with you. However, in this particular case, I would like to point out that the survivors themselves take it with a kind of humor (not all of them; like everybody else, some are more reserved than others). Carlitos, in particular, really amazes me when he retells the story. Roberto and Zerbino also have some funny stories that they share here and there. The reactor walked a thin line, but nothing outrageous.
@@kingkai4272 that's because the survivors are from an older generation where people had back bones and didn't get offended by every little thing and they knew how to take a joke.
@Puggapillar and @YouMeTheMovies I appreciate you guys for finding humor in a difficult situation, and don’t mind the haters. This is what one of the survivors said in the book “Society of The Snow” by Pablo Vierci (their friend): "In my lectures about the Andes, people always ask me what parts we ate, and I respond: ‘All of them.’ Sometimes up there we joked: ‘Don’t die now because you’re too skinny and bony.’ And in December we started making bets in black humour about who would die first - and I can talk about this because I was one of the most popular candidates due to my cadaverous appearance. I even found out at one point that I was leading the betting, I was the ‘favourite’, like on a racetrack, but I didn’t care.” This one is just one of the many dark humor these guys said on the mountain, and there were many more in the books. I highly recommend reading it at one point.
I hate that idea that not crying means the person wasn’t sufficiently emotionally affected. Sometimes one is just silently depressed and that’s fine. Lol We don’t have to “perform” our sadness in any certain way for anybody’s sake.
The cinematography truly is beautiful. This movie really hurts. Your reaction was perfect, though. Just the right amount of laughs and suffering 😅 “DRAGON!”
To those who are nagging that " alive" is better firts of all NOT ALL SURVIVORS GIVE THEIR PERMISSION TO DISNEY TO MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT THEM second this movie give the dead victims of the crash a recognition Hollywood didn't give them on "alive" third nobody is milking any cow 🙄 the survivors talk about their experiences on books after "alive" because the movie was full of lies, none of them almost died falling of a cliff, they portray Nando Parrado as heartless and not caring about his dying sister. This movie was on the make for 10 years. And they showed respect to the dead ones. That's the main point. Roberto canessa became a children's cardiologist and has saved hundreds of little kids with heart problems, all survivors funded a organization that helps people in need victims of natural disasters, drug addiction and homelessness. So if they got pay for this movie GOOD.
ive seen reactions with distasteful jokes that were awful, but i didnt see any problem with your reaction. i tend to joke around too when im nervous/uncomfy/etc, and i didnt feel in any moment like you didnt respect their situation despite the editing/joking (which was really funny, btw)
Hi!! I just found your channel and I loved your jokes and comments 😅😅 I have to say, though, that this open door with the hallway behind you drove me crazy with the idea that a mischievous creature could appear at any moment You seem to focus on horror themed movies/series, so in this case, this hallway is perfect! And if you really want to freak us out, put the picture of the NUN at the end of that hallway
I know it would have been so hard to get that top of mountain and keep going when it looks endless like that. But they had to try. Going back to the plane would have been death sentence itself. It still would have been weeks before searches continued and judging by all the bones they were already running out of bodies to eat.
As an Uruguayan, I loved your reaction. I didn’t find the jokes disrespectful at all, it’s a way of coping with the tragic of the story, also is not like you’re making fun of them personally, it’s still a f movie
The movie Alive 1996 tells the same story but it's Hollywood. Some of the survivors were involved in making this one. And they did some of the filming at the actual crash site.
People want reaction videos until you don't react the exact way they want lol.. I enjoyed this. Fellow aussie here and this is how we cope with uncomfy stuff
People deflect with humor when watching uncomfortable things all the time! Did you even watch or just come for the few jokes he told so you could write a jerk comment?
@@ashd2179i mean but he was clearly not paying attention becsuse of the constant joking, he didn't even noticed zerbino's suitcase purpose and lost one of the best scenes in the movie (when they encounter other people)
@@Gabi-nn6xu well then why don’t make a reaction and I’ll be the first one in the comments section telling you your reaction is wrong and what a horrible biotch you are!!!
That is a common issue with reacting in general. Reactors need to make commentary, brain needs to think of something to say, then say what comes to mind. During that thought process details get lost. Then double the cost of concentration when the reactor has to read subtitles, another thought process.
I'm hoping you realize this is a true story. This actually happened. 29 people died in that crash. Sixteen people survived that crash and lived to tell that tale. I'm only going to ask that you respect those 45 people who had loved ones. As for the suitcase, that was all that was left of the ones who died. Gustavo Zerbino put that together to take back to give some of the belongings off of the bodies back to their relatives back in Mondevideo. There was no way he was leaving that behind.
I kept watching thinking that you didn’t know this was based on a true story (even though the poster says so) and that you would eventually realize it was real and stop making jokes, but you actually knew that from the start and still made all those jokes… I understand being funny is what you usually do on your channel, so if that’s the case it would be better if you just skip this kind of movies for your videos. This is a movie where reactors need to take a more serious approach, in my opinion.
regarding their worry about if it was a sin to eat the dead... the pope of the time wrote a telegram to them, not to forgive them but to bless them and praise them for their courage, and for doing what any christian was suppouse to do, survive because god put us on the earth to live, because not eating could have being seen as sucide.... For the church, suicide is among the worst things anyone can do
Probably I don t get your humour... But the lack of sensibility of you watching it... Surprised me. I wonder why U needed a win. Didn t seem very respectful to the real story. Sorry about the comment... Loved so many other reactions from this movie... Not yours at all.
