Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet’s post-тιтanic reunion is now streaming for free. Their original collaboration was written and directed by James Cameron, blending real-life events with fictional drama. They star as two lovers from different social backgrounds aboard the ill-fated RMS тιтanic during its maiden voyage in 1912.
тιтanic was a landmark movie in many ways. It was the most expensive movie ever made at the time, with a production budget of $200 million, but wholly paid off by making $2.264 billion at the box office, the first film to ever surpᴀss the billion-dollar mark, and was the highest-grossing movie of all time until Cameron’s own Avatar took the тιтle in 2010.
Critically acclaimed, тιтanic received 14 Academy Award nominations and took home 11 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director, tying the record set by Ben-Hur (1959). Among its many accomplishments, тιтanic also propelled DiCaprio and Winslet to stardom, and the duo shared the screen again 12 years later in another acclaimed romantic drama.
Revolutionary Road Is Now Streaming For Free
Revolutionary Road is now streaming for free. Directed by Oscar-winner Sam Mendes – known for American Beauty, Skyfall, Spectre, and 1917 – the 2008 romantic drama stars DiCaprio and Winslet as Frank and April Wheeler, a young couple who move into a Connecticut suburb and cope with personal challenges as they attempt to raise their two children during the mid-1950s.
It also stars two-time Oscar nominee Michael Shannon, four-time Emmy nominee Kathryn Hahn, two-time Emmy nominee David Harbour, and Oscar winner Kathy Bates in supporting roles. Revolutionary Road marks a reunion not only between DiCaprio and Winslet, but also Bates, who also starred in тιтanic.
Per Collider, Revolutionary Road is now officially available to watch for free on Pluto TV. It’s a free ad-supported streaming service, meaning you don’t have to pay anything to watch the movie, but there will be advertisements shown throughout. Revolutionary Road was previously streaming on Paramount+.
Why You Should Watch Revolutionary Road
Revolutionary Road is brilliantly acted, featuring some of the best freakouts Leonardo DiCaprio has ever performed on screen. However, in an ensemble that also includes Kate Winslet and Kathy Bates, it’s Michael Shannon who manages to steal the show, earning an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
It’s an emotionally powerful film that provides one of the best portrayals of marriage and suburban life in recent memory. Revolutionary Road is a searing dissection of the American Dream, examining the quiet desperation that simmers beneath the surface of a seemingly idyllic suburban life.
