Two of the best British actors, directed by Hani Abu-Assad (with nomination for foreign Oscar for "Omar") are starring in The Mountain Between Us, based on Charles Martin's eponymous novel. After various changes of the acting duos in the main roles – from Michael Fasbender with Margo Robbie, through Rosamund Pike with Charlie Hnam, the final creative team has stopped at one of the most commented and engaged actors at the moment – Idris Elba and Kate Winslet, which during the years have proven she do not hesitates to enter into any kinds of roles, very often challenging and provocative, rarely annoying or boring and under its professional level (remember her appearance in Divergent?).
The combination between Idris Elba and Kate Winslet sounds very interesting, especially if placed in an isolated environment where their characters have to survive. We have had a similar movie – Kate has done brilliantly in the icy waters of the Atlantic, leaving Jack to die of frost. She's good at this thing.
In The Mountain Between Us Elba is a surgeon, called for a special case, and Winslet – a photojournalist traveling to his wedding, both proving to be the only survivors of a charter plane crash in the midst of an icy wasteland in the Colorado Mountains.
Speculations began to be heard on the extreme conditions of the shoots, as people began to doubt whether or not they can watch The Mountain Between Us free online at any of the movie streaming sites like poetzerofilm.com. According to the director, anyone would believe that Idris Elba could really live in the vast snowy reality outside of civilization, and admires Kate, who insists on doing her own actions in scenes that are planned for stand-in – for example A fall in the icy water...
Evident from the footage we are showing you, things are going to salvation. Interestingly, the conditions during the filming were extremely heavy because of the weather and Winslet was in danger of hypothermia. For the filming were used locations in Alberta and British Columbia in Canada, and according to the director sometimes it was hard to even open our eyes because of the cold weather.
We will certainly watch The Mountain Between Us. We have great confidence in the main actors, and we think they will do their best to play the perfect characters.
