It’s widely known that Leo that a rough time filming The Revenant. It was filmed in freezing conditions, he had to eat raw meat and suffer all kinds of nasty injuries. It bagged him that Oscar he was seeking, though, so no pain, no gain.

The Revenant is a !*$% gorgeous movie, with amazing camerawork and action scenes. The moment that collectively left jaws on the floor was the bear attack that sets the plot in motion, where Leo’s character has a nasty fight with a very eager animal.

It’s a gruelling, one take struggle where the more he fights the more injured he becomes, and the intensity of DiCaprio’s performance combined with seamless CG helps sell the terrifying sequence. He wins the fight – just about – but his troubles are only beginning.
