Society of the Snow (now on Netflix) revisits what many of us previously saw in 1993’s Alive, the harrowing based-on-a-true-story (BOATS) saga about members of a Uruguayan rugby squad who survived a plane crash in the Andes, and staved off starvation for more than two months in a freezing-cold environment by cannibalizing dead passengers. The new Spanish-language film, directed and co-written by J.A. Bayona (The Orphanage, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom), takes a slightly different approach, using as its basis the 2009 book Society of the Snow, by Uruguayan writer Pablo Vierci, a childhood friend of many of the survivors.
