The Revenant climbed to the top of the box office in North America this weekend.

New York, Washington and the rest of the eastern US may have been blasted from Friday into Sunday with a blizzard but that didn’t stop The Revenant, boosted by 12 Oscar nominations and feted at the Golden Globes, taking box office top spot.

The film took in $16 million to reach the box office summit for the first time in its fifth week in cinemas. That was down 50 percent on last weekend because of the blizzard but all the movies in the box office standings suffered similar plunges.
