Written By: Philip Eno on 01/25/16 at 5:19 am

The Revenant has stormed to the top of the US box office in a weekend affected by the East Coast snow storm. The Oscar nominated film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, is about a frontiersman fighting for survival after being attacked by a bear. It took $16m (£11.2m) with Star Wars: The Force Awakens in second place with $14.3m (£10m). Storm Jonas forced cinema closures in Washington DC and New York, while hundreds of others suspended showings.

We are saying that too!

But, I still have to see Eddie Redmayne in "The Danish Girl" for my own judgement.
