An agreeable western starring Robert Redford, that is about the legendary mountain man, Jeremiah Johnson. In the mid-1800's, the man sick of society, decides to go west and live on the land. There he encounters interesting Caucasian settlers and hostile Native Americans. A very interesting, but not a sensational film that's most likely not historically accurate. Great for western buffs.
