Auto-fail: This film is still playing in theaters and therefore the article is not stable enough to pass a GAN, especially when this hasn't even been released to theaters in China. We can't yet possibly know how much it's going to gross worldwide throughout its run. From a glance, I know this has a separate article for accolades, but it's worth noting DiCaprio's win at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. This film could also gain more accolades and it might also be worth mentioning the results of the Saturn Awards if this wins. I'm not sure if "epic historical adventure film" is the right genre description given how Hugh Glass was a real person but not all of the events in this film happen in real life and it isn't so much of an "adventure" he's on as much as it is Glass trying to survive in the wilderness. A more accurate description would be "survival drama" since it's about his survival, and this role also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama and the film won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama. We also don't yet know anything about its home media sales when it's still in theaters, so this is not broad enough in coverage to be a GA. The cast list and crew list both need to be fully cited, whether it's through individual citations or one citation at the end of each list saying something like "credits adapted from ______". The Oscars paragraph is also missing a citation. Please wait until details on home media sales are available and there are no more pending accolades, or at least until this is out of theaters and has been released onto DVD and Blu-Ray, before renominating.
