Bad acting? yeah right. I guess most of you people dont know the actors actually DID endure starvation to further sink into their characters....AND they actually endured the cold temperature in which they were shooting the film. Most of them got the flu from being always damp clothed and the retakes of some scenes in this film which sometimes took too long. This movie is a GREAT homage to this unfortunate event.
“After 20 years, you analyze a lot. You remember people, heroism. “The Miracle of the Andes”, that’s what they called it. Many people come up to me and say that had they been there, they surely would have died. But it makes no sense, because until you’re in a… situation like that… you… you have no idea… how you’d behave. To be affronted by solitude without decadence or a… single material thing to prostitute it elevates you to a sprititual plane, where I felt the presence of God.
@Curiner With reference to your last year's comment on the Alive! actors not being representative of Uruguayan people, you can see two documentaries featuring the real guys (in the present century): 1. The 1972 Andes Survivors - documentary (iA2zYwp4XzY), and 2. Stranded! The Andes Plane Crash Survivors (Lh4paCxxwDQ)
Brilliant true story, and this is a great film which could never do it justice really. If you want a more realistic and grittier picture of what happened, read the book 'Alive' by Piers Paul Read.
Yes....I know that all, the American South Cone even looks geographically North European in its pre-Antarctic regions: German-Swiss architecture in Bariloche, glaciers on the coasts, snowstorms in Tierra del Fuego, midnight sun, auroras in Torre Del Payne, etc, I traveled, i'd been there and is beautiful, cold, amazing.
@DerAnstifter Did you read what i said? I'd been there in Torres del Payne (Chile), I have pictures of the Southern Lights in the faraway horizon right there.
@Curiner I'm sorry to remark how ignorant you are. Chile, Argentina and Uruguay are majorly European countries. As a matter of fact, Uruguay is almost 100% European, even more than the nameless country between Canada and Mexico, dumbass!
The scariest thing about this is that they were lucky. Normally the chances of surviving a crash are minimal, look at the statistics. And please people, stop whining about the canibalistic part, it's just flesh, our ancestors did practice cannibalism alot, and in extreme cases it goes on even today, what a bunch of whimps commenting here....
@rudnymullenlover no im pretty sure it was 29 because there were 45 on the plane and 16 survived.... lol we watched this in religion class, including all the extra stuff and interviews... i know my stuff XD
El libro "La Sociedad de la Nieve" de Vierci está buenísimo es del 2008 y cuenta con fotos y testimonios de los protagonistas. Es increíble lo que pasó con esta gente, por suerte algunos lograron sobrevivir. Gracias a los inventos de Strauch, a la fortaleza de Canessa y Parrado y a la voluntad de todos ellos de vivir, la tragedia tuvo un "final feliz".
the plane that was used in those days was a Fokker 27 passenger conversion plane. the seats could be slid out for cargo only flights. in north America these type of planes were banned from use because of sliding seats could cause these types of fatality's as seen in the crash of this movie.
who cares if uruguay people are white.italian,and european wanna be.....this is about the movie........not race...so please save your racial stupid comments.....I was in uruagua 3 times i saw white spanish people....darl skin people as well....u dont have black people thats right but ARGENTINA AND CHILE DONT HAVE BLACK PEOPLE NEITHER!!!!...and if they had ...so what?
I love how everyone tells plane horror stories. So here's mine. Straight over the atlantic. We hit a storm and the turbulance was out of this world. We hit an air pocket about 2 hours before landing.. dropped a few hundred feet or so it seemed. Everything went BANG. The christians were cussing and the atheists were praying.. When we landed in Edinburgh, the landing gear malfunctioned and we bounced down the runway and somehow skidded to a dirty stop. Everyone cheered.
@groovylocks even the pilot was scared during the storm. He kept saying everything was ok for awhile. But then eventually he stopped saying that and just told us to hang in there, stay in our seats and try to relax. It was a red eye flight and i could see the ocean (I think) below us. And kept thinking about how, if we DID crash it would be a giant, epic bellyflop. Sucked ass.
lmfao I like it how they don't have a reaction when the airplane has crashed and broken while the rest are flying out but when they crash on the snow they begin to scream
@insastifecho A lot of north americans dont know where Uruguay is. Gosh, whenever they see someone who speaks spanish they assume your are from Mehico. "Hi, where are you from? Mexico?" (sometimes even when the person clearly speaking portuguese)
Watched this in English sophmore year because Nobody wanted to read the book so my teacher gave up and was like Ok where just gonna watch the film Loll
@dockecj For folks who have spent their entire lives near sea level to experience a complete loss of compression at 11,000 feet with the terrifying threat of death it's actually a shock that there was even a peep of noise from anyone's throat.
I had never been above 1,000 feet elevation in my life. When I made my first skydive at 13,000 feet I had to scream to be heard in a talk for lack of oxygen - and I was enjoying myself!
@WellConditioned7:04-7:46: At high altitudes, turboprop airplanes aren't able to climb the way they can at sea level. Airplanes have an "absolute ceiling" which is basically the altitude at which it will climb no more. So the events dramatized in this scene are realistic. Despite both engines being at full power here, the airplane seems almost unresponsive and the pilots are shown to be struggling in their desperate and unsuccessful bid to gain altitude and climb clear of the mountain peak.
IT DOES NOT MATTER if they speak english!!! All that matters is that you're trying to tell a story as good as you ever can just to TOUCH people!! I know because I have LEARNT IN SCHOOL how to make drama!! I mean, Marie Antoinette (from Sofia Coppola) was a huge success although all of the real people of Versailles were speaking french in their real lives and in the movie everyone were speaking english. But what does it really matter??
@nombredeusuarionombr uruguayan people are white?......ive been in URUGUAY and u have white and dark skin people...what are u talking about?......be proud of being latino...because thats what u r!!!!
@nombredeusuarionombr What are you talking about? Are you blind or what? I know a lot of negros from Argentina and Uruguay. All America is full of negros.

@nombredeusuarionombr What are you talking about? Are you blind or stupid or what? I know a lot of negros from Argentina and Uruguay. All America is full of negros.
Its the most ridiculous film ever, how people from Uruguay are speaking in english ?? thats totally ridiculous jaajajaj you people from usa must know this is a TRUE story and the survivors are heros here in Uruguay Argentina and Chile and they are still alive, so I know what I am talking about, is pathetic to make a film with "people from Uruguay" crossing Los Andes and speaking in english
That sucks that they were just a few miles from help, yet they went the long way 90 some miles through that is just unreal. With no food or shelter. Just goes to show that when people have to, we can survive against all odds against us. Amazing! Most people can't walk 90 miles on flat ground with food and shelter. Because of this movie I can honestly say I have never really had a bad day.
I waitressed the summer before I started college....on my last night, a few friends and I thought we would have some fun. We got on the intercom and made the announcement "Donner, party of 12," few mins later....."Correction, Donner, Party of 10..." this movie reminded me of that. LOL!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It sounds like the producers are trying to make these prejudice sons of *itches sound better than what they really were/are. They were all cheap. That is why they chose consolidated ticket pricing and brought as many people with them for group rates on this cheap charter plane. Cheap isnt better. They were just cheap cannabilistic bastards that ended up eating eachother to stay alive. They are no "great heroes." I HAVE TOO MUCH SENSE FOR THIS. You all get some sense and check the facts.
@u725674 Get your facts str8. This where bad political days in Uruguay back in the 70's, with kids mostly 19 year old flying on a charter plane. What would you like them to fly? KLM or Lufthanza 1st class? They didnt simply had the money. And they went on a charter plane before. This crash was due to an error from the Pilot, period!
People like you wouldn't survive 5 minutes up in those mountains. You would never be like them.... true HEROES! Just watch "Stranded" next time
Ok, to stop all the subjective racism comments, let's stick to the facts:
1. The members of the "Old Christians" rugby team came from the elite families of Montevideo
2. Most of the elite families of Montevideo, as the elite families from all over Latin America, are of RECENT European ancestry
3. Examples: Nando's mother was from Ukraine. Daniel, Fito and Eduardo are from the Strauch family, from Germany. Roy Harley's family came fron Ireland. Canessa, Mangino n Zerbino r of italian ancestry
@heymissdeejay Yea thats true. When I first heard of this incident I was shocked to hear some of these names of the passengers from a South American nation. Roy Harley??? You got to be kidding me, you cant get more American than that name.
What I don't understand is what was two Air Force pilots doing flying a group of civilian kids on a Air Force passenger plane to a rugby match? It doesnt make any sense. Is that how the military works in South America where military pilots act as airline pilots for civilians if the price is right?
@duncan7599 I don't know how it is now, but what the survivors say is that when they were planning the trip, they realized it would be cheaper if they rented a chartered Air Force Plane, rather than buying airline tickets. Since they were all in their late teens, and did not have any jobs, they opted for the cheaper - and later on, wrong - decision. The more people on the plane there were, the cheaper the cost would be, that's why Nando invited his mom and sister to come along
@heymissdeejay If thats the case than its worse than I thought that South American nations are renting out their militarys for private contracting to the lowest bidder. In the U.S. it is illegal for military planes to be used for private reasons or flying civilians unless the civilians lives are at risk. I mean you or I cant just call the U.S. Air Force and say hey can we rent some of your military transport planes and pilots, we will give you a dirt cheap price if you do.
the film misleads you into thinking that the male air steward is going to be a central charachter and part of the film, the plane hits the mountain and he is sucked out of the back of the plane, showing how horrific the situation is. this plane crash is incredibly scary. i remember seeing this in the 90's for the first time it terrified me. very realistic.
At 8:07 you see a piece of luggage smack Ethan Hawke square in the face (Lol) but if you listen carefully right after that, you can hear a guy say, "Suck on this" Lol, I'm not lying.
ta historia wydarzyla sie naprawde urzeklo mnie to w jaki sposub dawali sobie rade wstrzasajacy film malo osub przezylo tragiczny obraz tego wszystkiego co sie tam stalo
it's hilarious how they show everything before the crash as being lollipops, rainbows, and pixie farts like they were all just invincible, happy-go-lucky free spirits without a care in the world but laughter and rugby and taking pictures... woo hoo! crock of shit...
I bet they used beef jerky for the meat anyway im pretty sure I would rather die in the crash than be frozen, but then again,i would get eaten but if i was alive i would be a cannibal hmm oh i know im never gonna go on a plane over the andes with a imbesal driver
@ADEMruinedmylife909 in his defense i think that he may have showed this 2 tell u that in a great effort anything can happen he cudda also bn a dick but who am i to judge =-)
Ill tell you, once I was landing in a trip from the US and the weather was terrilble, we were almost touching the runway when the wind suddlenly twisted the plane like a piece of paper (this was a massive airbus), never seen anything like it before. The pilot then turned the engines to a maximum to abort landing, we hang on in there for what seemed ages, I thought I was gona die and started praying like this guy. worst feeling I ever had in my life.
@mustwinder of course there white , LATINOS ARE WHITE U DUMBSHIT, WTF U THINK WE ARE? MEXICANS?? U FUCKING RETARD HAHAHHAHHA U AMERICANS ARE SO NIGGERS AHAHAHAA!
@royalflipskater I'm simply trying to correct Flaitesexy's spelling mistake. Why are homophones so hard to distinguish? Their: their dog was barking all night, there: there are too many cooks in the kitchen, they're: they're is a contraction of they are... it's so annoying how so many people mix them up.
@royalflipskater I'm glad you agree. It often makes me wonder what people were doing while their teachers were explaining the differences-if they explained them at all. I know someone whose writing is full of such mistakes & it's such a pet peeve of mine. I wish her husband would look over her blogs & correct her so that she wouldn't look so ignorant! I wish it wasn't taboo to correct your friends' grammar! I did once & another friend flipped out on me. I was like 'Geez I'm trying to help you!'
@mustwinder Latinos, aren't all mestizos or black, there are some countries in south america like Argentina, chile, brazil or uruguay inhabited by white people, many of them are descendants of Spain and Italy
I saw this moive in high school back in the mid 1990s, and the whole class was laughing when half the people on the plane got sucked out of the fuselage! Our teacher became very upset and stopped the movie until we all claimed down!
i read the story and sorry for my ignorance there is this movie... i remeber how my stomach churned reading the gruesome parts of it and felt relief when all their ordeal came to an end... this story just showed how determination and perserverance can overcome any obstacles in life, even in those times that we felt is almost over...
Always makes me sad.... I was watching this during English... and when they showed that part my class laughed and replayed it, and I thought.... wow.... THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE DESERVED THIS..... ;(
its a good story i read the book and saw the movie its all very interesting, and the fact they survived this horrible travisty is reason enough not to disrespect the people who were on that plane
If it's bad weather, they could of flew around it. They just went right into it. Crazy. No power. Yeah, because the weather is stronger then the plan. U can't control that. DAM. The other people should of sat up front. Dam.
i know nothing about planes so asking this could make me sound stupid but.. when your the pilot and a bright red light is blinking pull up how hard is it to pull up??
@snrub92 I know very little as well but you can't pull up too quick (I believe). If you do, you may stall the engine. Plus, the g-force (gravitational force) would be extreme. You'd have to climb more gradually as opposed to a precipitous jolt... Only my opinion from the little I know.
OH MY GOD!! Massimo1gk do you have any idea how much I have prayed to God to see this on TV?! I TOTALLY LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! I saw this like 10 years ago and this never left me alone... I can't stop thinking about this. The one who put this film here made my dream come true. I'll pray for you that you will have EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER WANTED.

Ok, to stop all the subjective racism comments, let's stick to the facts:
1. The members of the "Old Christians" rugby team came from the elite families of Montevideo
2. Most of the elite families of Montevideo, as the elite families from all over Latin America, are of RECENT European ancestry
3. Examples: Nando's mother was from Ukraine. Daniel, Fito and Eduardo are from the Strauch family, from Germany. Roy Harley's family came fron Ireland. Canessa, Mangino n Zerbino r of italian ancestry

@heymissdeejay Yea thats true. When I first heard of this incident I was shocked to hear some of these names of the passengers from a South American nation. Roy Harley??? You got to be kidding me, you cant get more American than that name.

What I don't understand is what was two Air Force pilots doing flying a group of civilian kids on a Air Force passenger plane to a rugby match? It doesnt make any sense. Is that how the military works in South America where military pilots act as airline pilots for civilians if the price is right?
duncan7599 6 months ago
@duncan7599 I don't know how it is now, but what the survivors say is that when they were planning the trip, they realized it would be cheaper if they rented a chartered Air Force Plane, rather than buying airline tickets. Since they were all in their late teens, and did not have any jobs, they opted for the cheaper - and later on, wrong - decision. The more people on the plane there were, the cheaper the cost would be, that's why Nando invited his mom and sister to come along
heymissdeejay 5 months ago
@heymissdeejay If thats the case than its worse than I thought that South American nations are renting out their militarys for private contracting to the lowest bidder. In the U.S. it is illegal for military planes to be used for private reasons or flying civilians unless the civilians lives are at risk. I mean you or I cant just call the U.S. Air Force and say hey can we rent some of your military transport planes and pilots, we will give you a dirt cheap price if you do.

the film misleads you into thinking that the male air steward is going to be a central charachter and part of the film, the plane hits the mountain and he is sucked out of the back of the plane, showing how horrific the situation is. this plane crash is incredibly scary. i remember seeing this in the 90's for the first time it terrified me. very realistic.

Ill tell you, once I was landing in a trip from the US and the weather was terrilble, we were almost touching the runway when the wind suddlenly twisted the plane like a piece of paper (this was a massive airbus), never seen anything like it before. The pilot then turned the engines to a maximum to abort landing, we hang on in there for what seemed ages, I thought I was gona die and started praying like this guy. worst feeling I ever had in my life.

@royalflipskater I'm simply trying to correct Flaitesexy's spelling mistake. Why are homophones so hard to distinguish? Their: their dog was barking all night, there: there are too many cooks in the kitchen, they're: they're is a contraction of they are... it's so annoying how so many people mix them up.

@royalflipskater I'm glad you agree. It often makes me wonder what people were doing while their teachers were explaining the differences-if they explained them at all. I know someone whose writing is full of such mistakes & it's such a pet peeve of mine. I wish her husband would look over her blogs & correct her so that she wouldn't look so ignorant! I wish it wasn't taboo to correct your friends' grammar! I did once & another friend flipped out on me. I was like 'Geez I'm trying to help you!'

snrub92 10 months ago
@snrub92 I know very little as well but you can't pull up too quick (I believe). If you do, you may stall the engine. Plus, the g-force (gravitational force) would be extreme. You'd have to climb more gradually as opposed to a precipitous jolt... Only my opinion from the little I know.
