CRASH LANDINGS
In Yellowjackets (Nov. 14 on Showtime), a girls’ high school soccer team survives a plane crash in a remote northern wilderness and morphs into savages competing for resources. Sound familiar? Check out a few other plane-crash/survival dramas.
The Mountain Between Us (2017) Idris Elba and Kate Winslet are stranded when their flight crashes in the wilderness. The Grey (2011) If your plane goes down and wolves are closing in, wouldn’t you be glad Liam Neeson was on board? Cast Away (2000) It features Tom Hanks and possibly the most horrifyingly realistic plane crash of any movie. The Edge (1997) After a crash, Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin try to outsmart an angry Kodiak bear. The Flight of the Phoenix
(1965) Richard Attenborough, James Stewart and others try to survive a plane disaster in the Sahara.
