This was a curious request from trojansspaghetti I had to give a shot. Based on the Robert Redford movie of the same name. - The trailer is based heavily on the trailer for the indie movie Sundered Ways. I liked the rhythm of the wood chopping. Seemed to fit the premise. - Jeremiah Johnson is the story of a young soldier out west who fancies himself a fur trapper and mountain man. Once up in the wilds however he learns just how green he really is, receiving pointers from another trapper who knows how to survive. During his adventures as his skill improves he runs afoul of the local Crow tribes over the murder of a prairie family. From then on Jeremiah is a marked man for the deadliest indian assassins, but his tenacity, his survival skills, and something wholly Jeremiah will lead him from being the prey to the hunter. - The movie is still fondly recalled and would be difficult to improve upon, but like all things could be looked at in a different way. I just know if they remade it today the indians would all be awesome and the trappers would be evil, but that would miss the point. Jeremiah Johnson isn't the tale of one race or way of thinking triumphing over another, its a tale of men, pure and simple, and what they're willing to do for honor, for love, for survival.
