No, but will check it out. Netflix has really raised it's collection of interracial films involving black men and white women. Before it was mainly bw/wm.
 
I saw the screening of the movie Marshall. It was about Thurgood Marshall's involvement in a case of a Black chauffer being accoused of raping the wife of a advertiser. The case Connetticut Vs.Joseph Spell was a sensation that hit the media.
 
I remember this case. I saw a reenactment of it on an Investigation Discovery program. It was a very tragic story.
 
The first TV Spot for The Mountain Between Us I have seen today.



The first review of the film I seen today on http://variety.com/2017/film/festivals/the-mountain-between-us-review-1202553321/ by Peter Debruge. He mentions the romance in the movie lacking...

"...As icy plane crashes go, this one pales next to “Alive” or “The Grey,” while in terms of character insight, it’s got nothing on Julia Loktev’s “The Loneliest Planet” from a few years back. Whereas “The Mountain Between Us” was adapted from 300-odd semi-literate pages of three- and four-word sentences (Wilson’s prose makes Dan Brown sound like David Foster Wallace), Loktev’s film found more depth in a short story called “Expensive Trips Nowhere.” Incidentally, that would have been a perfect title for a movie in which neither the subzero temperature nor the romantic heat penetrates more than skin deep."


But he also doesn't seem too much of a fan of the book, so his full review sounds like he went in not being a fan. But at least it sounds like they didn't take the romance out of the movie, so the only question is does the romantic chemistry actually lacks and did they keep it as shallow as this critic says. Those re-shoots could mean so.
I saw it last Friday and enjoyed it. You will not be dissappointed.
