Aroview: This tale of hardcore cabin fever in the 1930s has the Arctic wasteland as a backdrop for the face off between two romantic idealists – one a naïve newlywed, the other a jaded, misanthropic brute (Skarsgard). The punishing environment and performances deliver unique thrills that linger long in the memory.
