Jeremiah Johnson was based on a true story, the Crow Killer, John Johnson. The book is a good read.
I like the movie also.

Been a long time since I saw it. Will have to watch for it.
I think it was RR who said it was just on recently. TMC if I remember correctly. Maybe they'll have an encore showing.

Watched it yesterday. Only criticism, and it's picky but his saddle was not period correct, was too modern.
Plus I realize it's for entertainment but all the time spent thrashing about in winter creeks trying to get fish....same as in the Revenant...would you not try to avoid getting soaked as much as possible in winter?...

As the thread title says, which are your votes for best and worst duster of all times? ....


As for best? "Appaloosa".

The bond between Everett Hitch and Virgil Cole---man, it doesn't get any cooler than that.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Thank you, Al. I appreciate that. Looking forward to the camaraderie and learning a thing or two along the way.

And if you don't mind my saying, that's a keen eye you've got there.
