1
00:03:57,429 --> 00:03:59,149
His name was Jeremiah Johnson.

2
00:03:59,909 --> 00:04:02,029
They say he wanted
to be a mountain man.

3
00:04:04,269 --> 00:04:08,229
The story goes that he was a man
of proper wit and adventurous spirit...

4
00:04:08,429 --> 00:04:10,149
...suited to the mountains.

5
00:04:12,709 --> 00:04:16,748
Nobody knows where he came from
and it don't seem to matter much.

6
00:04:16,948 --> 00:04:17,988
He was a young man...

7
00:04:18,188 --> 00:04:22,228
...and ghosty stories about
the tall hills didn't scare him none.

8
00:04:23,988 --> 00:04:27,908
He was looking for a Hawkin gun,
50 caliber or better.

9
00:04:28,108 --> 00:04:31,868
He settled for a 30, but damn,
it was a genuine Hawkin.

10
00:04:32,628 --> 00:04:34,388
You couldn't do no better.

11
00:04:35,628 --> 00:04:39,787
Bought a horse, traps and other truck
that went with being a mountain man.

12
00:04:39,987 --> 00:04:42,467
And said good-bye
to whatever life was down below.

13
00:04:43,267 --> 00:04:47,747
Where is it l could find bear, beaver,
other critters worth cash skinned?

14
00:04:47,947 --> 00:04:52,387
Ride due west as the sun sets.
Turn left at the Rocky Mountains.

15
00:04:54,227 --> 00:04:55,947
This here's his story.

16
00:04:58,226 --> 00:05:00,586
Jeremiah Johnson

17
00:05:00,786 --> 00:05:04,466
Made his way into the mountains

18
00:05:04,666 --> 00:05:07,226
Betting on forgetting

19
00:05:07,426 --> 00:05:10,666
All the troubles that he knew

20
00:05:15,666 --> 00:05:17,666
The trail was wide and narrow

21
00:05:18,946 --> 00:05:21,345
The eagle or the sparrow

22
00:05:21,545 --> 00:05:24,865
Showed the path he was to follow

23
00:05:25,065 --> 00:05:26,585
As it flew

24
00:05:32,025 --> 00:05:34,425
A mountain man's a lonely man

25
00:05:34,625 --> 00:05:37,905
And he leaves a lot behind

26
00:05:38,105 --> 00:05:40,945
lt ought to have been different

27
00:05:41,145 --> 00:05:44,104
But you often-times will find

28
00:05:44,304 --> 00:05:47,504
That the story doesn't always go

29
00:05:47,704 --> 00:05:50,544
The way you had in mind

30
00:05:50,904 --> 00:05:52,904
And Jeremiah's story

31
00:05:53,104 --> 00:05:55,144
Was that kind

32
00:10:59,930 --> 00:11:02,330
''l, Hatchet Jack...

33
00:11:02,970 --> 00:11:06,050
...being of sound mind
and broken legs...

34
00:11:06,250 --> 00:11:09,650
...do hereby leaveth my bear rifle...

35
00:11:09,850 --> 00:11:11,570
...to whatever finds it.

36
00:11:12,170 --> 00:11:16,249
Lord hope it be a white man.

37
00:11:16,689 --> 00:11:18,809
lt is a good rifle...

38
00:11:19,009 --> 00:11:22,089
...and killed the bear that killed me.

39
00:11:22,929 --> 00:11:25,849
Anyway, l am dead.

40
00:11:26,049 --> 00:11:28,969
Yours truly, Hatchet Jack.''

41
00:11:44,688 --> 00:11:46,568
A 50 caliber Hawkin!

42
00:13:06,124 --> 00:13:07,084
Come on, you.

43
00:13:09,204 --> 00:13:12,004
That'll be far enough, pilgrim!

44
00:13:15,644 --> 00:13:16,884
Where are you?

45
00:13:17,084 --> 00:13:19,084
You're a fine target, pilgrim!

46
00:13:19,604 --> 00:13:21,524
Empty your hand.

47
00:13:35,043 --> 00:13:38,003
l ain't seen no live man in 2 months.

48
00:13:38,483 --> 00:13:40,683
l am Bear Claw Chris Lapp.

49
00:13:40,883 --> 00:13:44,363
Blood kin to the grizzly
that bit Jim Bridger's ass!

50
00:13:44,563 --> 00:13:46,723
You are molesting my hunt!

51
00:13:48,242 --> 00:13:49,482
l know who you are!

52
00:13:49,682 --> 00:13:52,922
You're the same dumb pilgrim
l've been hearing for 20 days...

53
00:13:53,122 --> 00:13:55,282
...and smelling for 3!

54
00:14:03,362 --> 00:14:05,882
How come you ain't been scalped?

55
00:14:08,282 --> 00:14:10,001
Ain't been too lucky?

56
00:14:12,241 --> 00:14:15,641
This place has been
trapped out since '25.

57
00:14:16,961 --> 00:14:17,881
Why are you here?

58
00:14:18,361 --> 00:14:19,801
l hunt griz.

59
00:14:21,041 --> 00:14:24,201
Grizzly bears, pilgrim.
l collect the claws.

60
00:14:26,081 --> 00:14:27,641
l had one in that thicket back there.

61
00:14:27,841 --> 00:14:30,161
Ready to shake hands
until you came along!

62
00:14:31,401 --> 00:14:32,480
l'm sorry, then.

63
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,280
You look it!

64
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,720
Hungry too?

65
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,320
Come on.

66
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,400
You know how to skin griz?

67
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,640
l can skin most anything.

68
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,040
You sure are cocky
for a starving pilgrim.

69
00:14:55,439 --> 00:14:56,359
There she be.

70
00:14:56,559 --> 00:14:58,919
You go in, get warm,
get yourself something to eat.

71
00:14:59,119 --> 00:15:01,479
l've got a chore to finish.

72
00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:02,879
My boy!

73
00:15:03,079 --> 00:15:05,959
Are you sure that you can skin griz?

74
00:15:06,159 --> 00:15:08,359
Just as fast as you can find them.

75
00:16:02,316 --> 00:16:05,796
Skin that one, pilgrim,
and l'll get you another!

76
00:16:31,035 --> 00:16:32,995
Must have missed
another war down there.

77
00:16:35,435 --> 00:16:36,395
Didn't miss nothing.

78
00:16:40,355 --> 00:16:43,915
lf l head due west tomorrow,
will l find good places to trap?

79
00:16:44,114 --> 00:16:48,394
lf you head due west or any place
tomorrow you'll be starving in a week.

80
00:16:48,594 --> 00:16:51,274
You ain't likely to meet
someone of my good nature.

81
00:16:53,834 --> 00:16:55,514
Mountain's got its own ways.

82
00:16:57,714 --> 00:17:01,074
Use that skin pad, pilgrim,
before you lose all your fingers.

83
00:17:04,434 --> 00:17:07,993
Whatever you learned down in the flat
will serve you no good up here.

84
00:17:08,233 --> 00:17:10,073
You got some work to do.

85
00:17:38,672 --> 00:17:42,952
Utes and Flatheads
are generally peaceful critters.

86
00:17:43,312 --> 00:17:45,632
Crows, they are fearful.

87
00:17:45,992 --> 00:17:47,272
Mighty warriors too.

88
00:17:47,992 --> 00:17:51,031
ln my opinion the Crows
are the handsomest lndians there is.

89
00:17:51,231 --> 00:17:52,471
And proud too.

90
00:17:53,431 --> 00:17:55,871
There ain't a man alive
can match them on a horse.

91
00:17:56,391 --> 00:17:59,191
l've seen them run
with one foot on the horse's rump...

92
00:17:59,391 --> 00:18:01,671
...one wrist through a loop
in the mane...

93
00:18:01,831 --> 00:18:04,391
...shooting arrows and guns
under the horse's neck!

94
00:18:06,071 --> 00:18:08,111
But they are an adulterous people.

95
00:18:08,311 --> 00:18:10,271
Adulterous.

96
00:18:10,671 --> 00:18:13,510
Here you are, pilgrim.
Sharp enough to scale a fish with.

97
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:35,109
Ever get lonesome?

98
00:18:35,829 --> 00:18:36,709
For what?

99
00:18:38,949 --> 00:18:39,869
Woman?

100
00:18:42,589 --> 00:18:43,989
Full-time night woman?

101
00:18:47,269 --> 00:18:49,589
l never could find no tracks
in a woman's heart.

102
00:18:50,309 --> 00:18:52,789
l packed a squaw
for 10 years, pilgrim.

103
00:18:53,669 --> 00:18:55,589
Cheyenne, she was.

104
00:18:55,789 --> 00:18:58,348
And the meanest bitch
that ever balled for beads!

105
00:18:58,548 --> 00:19:03,028
l lodgepoled her at Dead Wolf Creek
and traded her for a Hawkin gun!

106
00:19:03,228 --> 00:19:05,988
Don't get me wrong,
l love the women, l surely do!

107
00:19:06,788 --> 00:19:08,228
But l swear...

108
00:19:08,468 --> 00:19:10,908
...a woman's breast
is the hardest rock...

109
00:19:11,108 --> 00:19:13,268
...the Almighty ever made on Earth...

110
00:19:13,468 --> 00:19:15,988
...and l can find no sign on it.

111
00:19:19,387 --> 00:19:22,667
Now these coals here
will simmer until sunrise.

112
00:19:23,147 --> 00:19:25,107
You better go do likewise.

113
00:19:48,546 --> 00:19:50,666
Didn't put enough dirt down.

114
00:19:51,266 --> 00:19:53,306
Saw it right off.

115
00:20:05,345 --> 00:20:07,065
You track well, pilgrim.

116
00:20:07,905 --> 00:20:09,385
Kind of like it, don't you?

117
00:20:09,905 --> 00:20:10,905
Maybe.

118
00:20:11,105 --> 00:20:12,985
Figures.
Human man...

119
00:20:13,185 --> 00:20:15,225
...he likes tracking and killing.

120
00:20:15,425 --> 00:20:17,665
An lnjun, he figures it's natural.

121
00:20:21,225 --> 00:20:22,425
Wind's right.

122
00:20:22,625 --> 00:20:25,384
But he'll just run, soon as
we step out of these trees.

123
00:20:25,584 --> 00:20:29,224
Trick to it.
Walk out on this side of your horse.

124
00:20:31,424 --> 00:20:32,664
What if he sees our feet?

125
00:20:32,864 --> 00:20:35,744
Elk don't know
how many feet a horse has.

126
00:20:39,744 --> 00:20:42,104
No, you damn fool!
Slide it up over the saddle!

127
00:20:57,583 --> 00:21:00,863
You got him, pilgrim!
You nailed him clean.

128
00:21:01,983 --> 00:21:03,983
We got us an elk to skin!

129
00:21:07,943 --> 00:21:12,342
Can't figure people down there
eating hog when they could feed on elk.

130
00:21:19,142 --> 00:21:20,502
Didn't like it down there?

131
00:21:22,982 --> 00:21:25,062
-Ought to have been different.
-ls that so?

132
00:21:26,222 --> 00:21:29,022
Many a child journeys
this high to be different.

133
00:21:29,182 --> 00:21:32,381
To get from here what their natures
couldn't get them below.

134
00:21:33,341 --> 00:21:34,501
lt comes to nothing.

135
00:21:35,741 --> 00:21:38,981
Can't cheat the mountain, pilgrim.
Mountain got it....

136
00:22:01,060 --> 00:22:05,700
Probably Crow. They'll steal
our horses unless we bribe them.

137
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:08,820
lt's their territory.
They figure we're trespassing.

138
00:22:10,580 --> 00:22:12,020
Yep, Crow.

139
00:22:12,420 --> 00:22:13,980
Fellow by the name
of Paints-His-Shirt-Red.

140
00:22:14,180 --> 00:22:16,099
That's his sign.
Just stand still.

141
00:22:38,778 --> 00:22:40,058
You two know each other?

142
00:22:40,298 --> 00:22:41,498
l saw him once.

143
00:22:43,658 --> 00:22:45,538
He says you fish poorly.

144
00:22:46,698 --> 00:22:48,138
You understand their language?

145
00:22:48,338 --> 00:22:51,778
Paints-His-Shirt speaks English,
he just does this to aggravate me.

146
00:23:04,137 --> 00:23:05,937
Says he's got enough bear claws.

147
00:23:40,296 --> 00:23:41,816
What's your name?

148
00:23:43,096 --> 00:23:44,495
Johnson.

149
00:23:46,735 --> 00:23:47,695
Your Christian name?

150
00:23:49,855 --> 00:23:50,975
Jeremiah.

151
00:24:08,574 --> 00:24:11,214
You've learned well, pilgrim.
You'll go far.

152
00:24:11,734 --> 00:24:14,174
Providing you ain't burnt alive
or scalped.

153
00:24:14,374 --> 00:24:15,534
l will do my best.

154
00:24:17,254 --> 00:24:20,454
You can cut wood
and leave it up on the Judith.

155
00:24:21,254 --> 00:24:24,534
Riverboat captains will leave you gold
if you put out a pouch.

156
00:24:24,934 --> 00:24:26,614
Good thing to know...

157
00:24:26,934 --> 00:24:28,493
...if times get hard.

158
00:24:34,933 --> 00:24:36,253
Watch your topknot.

159
00:24:38,013 --> 00:24:39,533
Watch yours.

160
00:27:13,006 --> 00:27:14,446
l told you not to go play outside.

161
00:27:14,646 --> 00:27:16,646
You got yourself all dirty...

162
00:27:16,846 --> 00:27:19,566
...and also, young lady...

163
00:27:19,726 --> 00:27:22,286
...without your shoes.

164
00:27:23,166 --> 00:27:24,645
And you, Josh...

165
00:27:25,605 --> 00:27:26,885
...dirty!

166
00:27:27,685 --> 00:27:29,645
Look at you!
There, now!

167
00:27:31,685 --> 00:27:34,405
Mary Lou, you knew better
than to go out in the sun....

168
00:27:39,285 --> 00:27:42,005
Have l told you
not to go out...

169
00:27:42,205 --> 00:27:45,125
...without a bonnet on your head?

170
00:27:54,164 --> 00:27:56,004
You better stop there.

171
00:28:07,004 --> 00:28:08,803
Woman, l am your friend.

172
00:28:13,083 --> 00:28:15,043
We have graves to dig.

173
00:28:20,843 --> 00:28:23,003
You were borne on the wind today.

174
00:28:25,723 --> 00:28:28,523
Josh was being a bad boy.
l must tell your father.

175
00:28:30,602 --> 00:28:32,882
Time to start the garden.

176
00:28:34,442 --> 00:28:36,042
lf the wind would stop.

177
00:28:47,562 --> 00:28:48,842
We will now sing.

178
00:28:50,522 --> 00:28:53,441
Shall we gather at the river

179
00:28:56,241 --> 00:28:59,681
Where bright angel feet have trod

180
00:29:00,001 --> 00:29:03,721
With its crystal tide forever

181
00:29:04,961 --> 00:29:08,201
Flowing by the throne of God

182
00:29:08,481 --> 00:29:12,801
Yes, we'll gather at the river

183
00:29:13,001 --> 00:29:17,600
The beautiful, the beautiful river

184
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:22,400
Gather with the saints at the river

185
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,400
That flows by the throne of God

186
00:29:57,479 --> 00:29:59,718
Boy, did you see all this?

187
00:30:05,478 --> 00:30:07,558
Better get one of these biscuits, boy.

188
00:30:10,238 --> 00:30:11,998
l make damn good biscuits.

189
00:30:52,996 --> 00:30:54,436
Here's food.

190
00:31:18,275 --> 00:31:20,995
l could not find your husband
anywhere, madam.

191
00:31:21,635 --> 00:31:23,875
So, maybe he will come back here.

192
00:31:29,954 --> 00:31:33,234
The lndians will not bother you now,
on account of...

193
00:31:33,434 --> 00:31:35,034
...you are touched.

194
00:31:36,274 --> 00:31:37,954
They will be afraid.

195
00:31:46,434 --> 00:31:48,154
What about the boy?

196
00:33:05,630 --> 00:33:08,950
Maybe you and the boy
best come with me now.

197
00:33:11,710 --> 00:33:14,710
l will take you down to the Judith.
Put you on a ferry.

198
00:33:38,349 --> 00:33:39,468
Take him.

199
00:33:39,668 --> 00:33:41,308
-What?
-Take him!

200
00:33:43,308 --> 00:33:45,668
Madam, l wouldn't know how
to tend after....

201
00:34:08,547 --> 00:34:10,547
You got a name, boy?

202
00:34:16,507 --> 00:34:18,347
l will call you Caleb.

203
00:34:18,587 --> 00:34:20,987
lt is a name l have always admired.

204
00:34:21,187 --> 00:34:23,107
You like that? Caleb?

205
00:34:26,746 --> 00:34:29,386
Do what you like.
l was much the same myself.

206
00:34:50,345 --> 00:34:51,665
Damn!

207
00:35:10,824 --> 00:35:11,784
Are you all right?

208
00:35:11,984 --> 00:35:15,344
Sure, l got a fine horse under me!

209
00:35:17,464 --> 00:35:20,664
Got one of them feathers in my nose.

210
00:35:23,184 --> 00:35:24,664
Keep sneezing,
it'll come out all right.

211
00:35:28,424 --> 00:35:30,863
Haven't seen anyone pass by recently,
have you?

212
00:35:31,063 --> 00:35:33,983
Nobody's gone in front of me.

213
00:35:34,183 --> 00:35:36,063
Can't say what's happened
behind me though.

214
00:35:41,623 --> 00:35:43,263
The lnjuns put you here?

215
00:35:43,463 --> 00:35:45,503
lt weren't Mormons.

216
00:35:45,783 --> 00:35:49,983
A chief, name of Mad Wolf.
Nice fellow, don't talk a hell of a lot.

217
00:35:50,343 --> 00:35:53,142
You wouldn't have
an extra hat on you, would you?

218
00:35:53,302 --> 00:35:55,382
Shade's getting scarce in these parts.

219
00:35:55,662 --> 00:35:57,142
What did you shave your head for?

220
00:35:57,942 --> 00:36:01,102
Mad Wolf figures like
every other lnjun l know.

221
00:36:01,302 --> 00:36:05,942
Says this scalp ain't fit
for no decent man's lodgepole.

222
00:36:06,182 --> 00:36:10,262
Ain't the first time l protected
my head in such a way.

223
00:36:10,662 --> 00:36:12,622
Name's Del Gue.

224
00:36:12,942 --> 00:36:14,261
With an ''E.''

225
00:36:15,621 --> 00:36:17,141
How long since they've been through?

226
00:36:17,341 --> 00:36:18,861
Not more than a few hours ago.

227
00:36:19,061 --> 00:36:21,581
l will be happy to see my horse.
l hate walking.

228
00:36:22,941 --> 00:36:25,581
l knew you would help me
get my pelts back.

229
00:36:25,941 --> 00:36:28,861
l wouldn't leave a man
without a horse or gun.

230
00:36:32,221 --> 00:36:34,421
Ain't that Hatchet Jack's rifle?

231
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:36,900
How did you get it?

232
00:36:37,100 --> 00:36:39,180
l found him, froze to a tree.

233
00:36:39,540 --> 00:36:40,780
Damn!

234
00:36:41,460 --> 00:36:43,580
That Hatchet Jack was a wild one.

235
00:36:43,780 --> 00:36:45,740
He was living with a female panther.

236
00:36:45,940 --> 00:36:48,660
Two years in a cave
up in the Musselshell.

237
00:36:48,820 --> 00:36:50,700
She never did get used to him.

238
00:36:57,420 --> 00:36:58,899
That be them.

239
00:36:59,859 --> 00:37:01,619
-How many you figure?
-Three.

240
00:37:02,099 --> 00:37:03,979
Just like before.

241
00:37:06,659 --> 00:37:08,619
Are you smelling them Blackfeet?

242
00:37:08,859 --> 00:37:13,179
No, l'm locating my horse.
Dirtiest animal this side of hell.

243
00:37:13,699 --> 00:37:17,979
Come dark, you give me your pistol.
Load that bear rifle full of nails.

244
00:37:18,339 --> 00:37:21,898
No, l got no truck with them Blackfeet.
l plan to be here a long time.

245
00:37:22,098 --> 00:37:25,218
And l do not want them down on me.

246
00:37:25,418 --> 00:37:29,298
Them critters hammered me
into the ground. Took my rifle, horse.

247
00:37:29,498 --> 00:37:33,258
Stole my pelts. Not to mention
what they done to that boy's folks!

248
00:37:33,458 --> 00:37:34,418
Then let it pass?

249
00:37:34,618 --> 00:37:35,818
Nope.

250
00:37:36,338 --> 00:37:37,618
But they'll be asleep soon.

251
00:37:37,778 --> 00:37:41,258
Should be no trouble to slip in there
and then get your possibles.

252
00:37:49,897 --> 00:37:51,617
Use this blanket, boy.

253
00:37:52,017 --> 00:37:53,457
To keep you warm.

254
00:37:56,177 --> 00:37:57,737
He don't say a lot, does he?

255
00:37:57,937 --> 00:37:58,937
No.

256
00:38:07,496 --> 00:38:08,616
No.

257
00:38:11,496 --> 00:38:13,536
Stay here with the animals.

258
00:38:54,974 --> 00:38:56,934
l am Del Gue!

259
00:38:57,134 --> 00:38:59,534
l can whip my weight in wolverines...

260
00:39:00,934 --> 00:39:04,774
...straight through a crab apple orchard
on a flash of lightning!

261
00:39:05,574 --> 00:39:06,974
You've stolen my pelts!

262
00:39:07,174 --> 00:39:09,414
And die, you must!

263
00:39:16,893 --> 00:39:19,813
You skinheaded son of a bitch,
you almost got me killed!

264
00:39:35,212 --> 00:39:36,172
Where are you going?

265
00:39:38,092 --> 00:39:39,412
Don't you want any of these?

266
00:39:41,612 --> 00:39:42,532
What?

267
00:39:43,012 --> 00:39:44,052
Scalps!

268
00:39:47,252 --> 00:39:48,492
No.

269
00:39:51,572 --> 00:39:55,331
Mother Gue never raised
such a foolish child.

270
00:40:06,171 --> 00:40:07,731
Stop that, boy.

271
00:40:14,091 --> 00:40:16,970
-What do you do with them scalps?
-Sell them to the English.

272
00:40:17,370 --> 00:40:18,570
English?

273
00:40:19,050 --> 00:40:21,770
London is wallpapered
with lnjun scalps.

274
00:40:58,289 --> 00:41:01,248
-We could pull into those trees.
-Don't go getting hasty.

275
00:41:02,528 --> 00:41:05,528
Them is Flatheads, and they've hurt
nobody that l know.

276
00:41:05,968 --> 00:41:07,728
Just hold back.

277
00:41:23,247 --> 00:41:24,207
What's he saying?

278
00:41:24,647 --> 00:41:26,647
Says they're Blackfeet ponies.

279
00:41:35,607 --> 00:41:37,567
He asks if you are the great warrior...

280
00:41:37,767 --> 00:41:41,087
...who avenges the Crazy Woman
in the Wolf Tail Valley.

281
00:41:41,287 --> 00:41:42,567
She's big medicine.

282
00:41:42,767 --> 00:41:44,766
And so are you,
if you are that man.

283
00:41:48,766 --> 00:41:49,766
So what's he shouting for?

284
00:41:50,206 --> 00:41:51,166
Scared of you.

285
00:41:58,806 --> 00:42:01,526
-But how did you...?
-l didn't know they'd be Flatheads.

286
00:42:27,045 --> 00:42:28,005
lt's all right, boy.

287
00:42:28,645 --> 00:42:31,524
Chief here is named
Two-Tongues Le Beau.

288
00:42:31,684 --> 00:42:33,404
Mighty educated too.

289
00:42:33,604 --> 00:42:36,444
French missionaries
taught him their language.

290
00:42:36,644 --> 00:42:39,244
-Christian lndians?
-Lots of them.

291
00:43:30,922 --> 00:43:32,922
He says the scalps are fierce...

292
00:43:33,122 --> 00:43:35,761
...and the horses are fleet.

293
00:43:36,841 --> 00:43:37,601
Take them.

294
00:43:40,881 --> 00:43:43,161
And the ponies.
l have no further use for them.

295
00:43:43,361 --> 00:43:45,601
Damn fool,
you may have cooked our brains!

296
00:43:46,041 --> 00:43:48,641
He brought us here to honor you
and you want to give him a gift.

297
00:43:48,841 --> 00:43:51,321
lf he cannot give you a better one,
it'll be an insult.

298
00:44:33,759 --> 00:44:34,759
What's so funny?

299
00:44:36,479 --> 00:44:37,839
The danger is over.

300
00:44:38,639 --> 00:44:40,119
He has thought of a better gift.

301
00:44:40,879 --> 00:44:41,558
His daughter.

302
00:44:42,598 --> 00:44:45,078
Now you have a son,
you need a wife.

303
00:44:45,278 --> 00:44:48,438
-l don't want no wife--
-He says he'll be very happy

304
00:44:53,918 --> 00:44:56,558
What is that word?
Oh, yes!

305
00:45:01,598 --> 00:45:04,037
He may read the Bible,
but he's still an lnjun.

306
00:45:04,237 --> 00:45:05,877
And his rules is his rules.

307
00:45:06,077 --> 00:45:09,077
lf you value your hair,
you will get married!

308
00:45:13,757 --> 00:45:15,797
l do not think this is funny.

309
00:45:15,997 --> 00:45:17,077
lt ain't.

310
00:45:17,277 --> 00:45:20,597
When you get out of here, you can
take her to Fort Hawley and sell her.

311
00:45:21,197 --> 00:45:23,437
But you best take her, friend.

312
00:45:23,837 --> 00:45:25,756
Besides, maybe she ain't near bad.

313
00:45:47,675 --> 00:45:51,755
He says she's called The Swan,
but she'll answer to anything you want.

314
00:45:55,835 --> 00:45:57,275
But maybe you need her.

315
00:45:58,715 --> 00:46:02,075
You turn down this gift, they'll slit
you, me, Caleb and the horses...

316
00:46:02,275 --> 00:46:05,835
...from crotch to eyeball
with a dull deer antler!

317
00:47:04,632 --> 00:47:07,072
Pleased to make your acquaintance,
Mrs. Johnson.

318
00:47:07,272 --> 00:47:09,872
Your husband has told me
so much about you.

319
00:47:10,232 --> 00:47:13,552
Congratulations, Two-Tongues.
Wonderful wedding.

320
00:47:14,312 --> 00:47:15,791
Bye, Jeremiah Johnson!

321
00:47:15,991 --> 00:47:16,951
Where are you going?

322
00:47:17,151 --> 00:47:19,991
l wouldn't want to disturb
your wedding night.

323
00:47:21,031 --> 00:47:22,871
l'll see you in the fall.

324
00:47:23,831 --> 00:47:26,671
Have a nice honeymoon,
Mrs. Johnson.

325
00:47:34,271 --> 00:47:36,351
The way that you wander

326
00:47:37,111 --> 00:47:40,310
ls the way that you choose

327
00:47:41,590 --> 00:47:44,190
The day that you tarry

328
00:47:44,630 --> 00:47:46,990
ls the day that you lose

329
00:47:50,710 --> 00:47:52,070
Do you speak any English?

330
00:48:00,269 --> 00:48:01,909
l don't speak any Flathead.

331
00:48:09,789 --> 00:48:11,349
So don't bother me,
neither of you!

332
00:48:12,589 --> 00:48:15,229
Sunshine or thunder

333
00:48:16,549 --> 00:48:19,069
A man will always wonder

334
00:48:21,749 --> 00:48:24,388
Where the fair wind blows

335
00:48:49,987 --> 00:48:51,307
Wondering about something?

336
00:48:55,947 --> 00:48:57,187
Go ahead, ask.

337
00:49:08,906 --> 00:49:10,306
Leave it be.

338
00:49:11,346 --> 00:49:13,186
Nothing wrong with quiet.

339
00:49:17,586 --> 00:49:20,146
Cooking sure don't smell
like Bear Claw's.

340
00:49:23,826 --> 00:49:25,546
Tie him off, boy.

341
00:49:55,424 --> 00:49:56,824
Suppertime!

342
00:50:04,344 --> 00:50:06,824
Go on, boy, and eat.
lt's good for you.

343
00:50:31,343 --> 00:50:32,583
l'm full.

344
00:50:41,422 --> 00:50:42,702
You religious too?

345
00:50:44,022 --> 00:50:45,382
Religious.

346
00:50:54,902 --> 00:50:56,501
l'm not going to harm you.

347
00:51:00,261 --> 00:51:01,821
Religious.

348
00:51:03,181 --> 00:51:04,141
Yes.

349
00:51:09,581 --> 00:51:11,101
l'm not going to harm you.

350
00:51:28,260 --> 00:51:31,020
Ain't that a lot easier
than saying all that gibberish?

351
00:51:39,980 --> 00:51:41,299
Great hunter.

352
00:51:47,659 --> 00:51:49,499
Fine figure of a man, yes?

353
00:51:54,979 --> 00:51:57,859
That is all you need to know.
For now.

354
00:52:01,419 --> 00:52:03,018
You getting enough, boy?

355
00:53:09,895 --> 00:53:11,815
This wasn't my idea, you know?

356
00:54:27,492 --> 00:54:28,412
Lord!

357
00:56:54,925 --> 00:56:56,125
This'll do.

358
00:56:58,405 --> 00:57:00,765
River in front, cliffs behind.

359
00:57:01,725 --> 00:57:04,285
Good water.
Not much wind.

360
00:57:07,485 --> 00:57:09,245
This will be a good place to live.

361
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:44,760
Hawk.

362
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,360
Going for the Musselshell.

363
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:53,520
lt'd take me a week's riding.
And he'll be there in....

364
00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:56,240
Hell, he's there already.

365
00:59:08,119 --> 00:59:12,599
l wish you would see fit to stop
the practicing of these ceremonies.

366
00:59:21,799 --> 00:59:24,638
Take notice of the traps
and go fetch some proper food.

367
00:59:27,198 --> 00:59:29,878
And keep your nose open,
there may be lndians about.

368
00:59:58,557 --> 01:00:00,237
Be going for buffalo soon.

369
01:00:08,836 --> 01:00:09,756
No, you'll stay here.

370
01:00:14,076 --> 01:00:15,956
Go on,
fetch the rest of that wood.

371
01:00:32,675 --> 01:00:35,235
Swan, l cannot stand this weight.

372
01:01:01,314 --> 01:01:02,754
lt will have to do.

373
01:01:57,472 --> 01:01:59,671
lt will keep me warm
in the strong wind.

374
01:02:00,511 --> 01:02:02,551
And the rain
will not pass through neither.

375
01:02:05,511 --> 01:02:06,551
Thank you.

376
01:06:11,700 --> 01:06:13,180
You have beaver scent?

377
01:06:20,780 --> 01:06:22,380
What's happened to your face?

378
01:06:30,219 --> 01:06:31,579
My beard?

379
01:06:39,939 --> 01:06:41,499
Here, l want you to watch this.

380
01:06:43,899 --> 01:06:44,979
Spring.

381
01:06:46,938 --> 01:06:47,898
There.

382
01:06:49,458 --> 01:06:51,578
Careful, that'll take your hand off.

383
01:07:06,978 --> 01:07:08,577
Put that smell down.

384
01:07:09,857 --> 01:07:11,417
Won't come around without the smell.

385
01:07:54,655 --> 01:07:56,975
Hell, don't run off.
lt's me.

386
01:08:02,815 --> 01:08:03,815
What?

387
01:08:04,015 --> 01:08:05,495
Skin this.

388
01:09:14,212 --> 01:09:15,492
Troop, halt!

389
01:09:24,051 --> 01:09:26,931
l'm Lieutenant Mulvey,
Third Cavalry.

390
01:09:28,771 --> 01:09:30,491
That's Reverend Lindquist.

391
01:09:32,411 --> 01:09:35,371
We've been watched ever since
we started the climb up from the Gila.

392
01:09:39,851 --> 01:09:41,011
Who are they, Flathead?

393
01:09:46,330 --> 01:09:47,410
l said, are they Flathead?

394
01:09:53,010 --> 01:09:55,290
-Did l say something?
-No.

395
01:09:55,490 --> 01:09:57,090
lt's been a long time...

396
01:09:58,050 --> 01:09:59,610
...since l had...

397
01:09:59,810 --> 01:10:02,090
...so much of the English language
spoken at me.

398
01:10:02,690 --> 01:10:04,169
l ain't used to it.

399
01:10:05,369 --> 01:10:06,649
Crow.

400
01:10:07,409 --> 01:10:08,649
This is Crow land.

401
01:10:08,889 --> 01:10:11,329
This is the Department of Colorado.

402
01:10:14,209 --> 01:10:15,729
You're on good terms with them.

403
01:10:15,929 --> 01:10:16,969
Crow?

404
01:10:17,169 --> 01:10:18,329
Who gave you that idea?

405
01:10:18,529 --> 01:10:20,329
People talk about it down below.

406
01:10:20,529 --> 01:10:21,689
You live up here.

407
01:10:23,729 --> 01:10:24,729
l do that.

408
01:10:24,929 --> 01:10:26,968
And you know the high country.

409
01:10:27,168 --> 01:10:29,408
Do you know Feather Mesa?

410
01:10:31,288 --> 01:10:32,248
l do. So?

411
01:10:32,448 --> 01:10:33,888
We have wagons there.
Three of them.

412
01:10:34,488 --> 01:10:36,128
Broke down in the snow and ice.

413
01:10:36,288 --> 01:10:38,928
We got to get them
out of there before they freeze.

414
01:10:39,168 --> 01:10:40,408
Or the lndians get them.

415
01:10:42,008 --> 01:10:43,088
Would be wise.

416
01:10:45,928 --> 01:10:48,687
We were told that
you would know how to get there.

417
01:10:51,127 --> 01:10:52,927
Through those passes.

418
01:10:57,127 --> 01:10:59,207
We were hoping that maybe....

419
01:11:03,487 --> 01:11:05,687
These are Christian families.

420
01:11:05,887 --> 01:11:08,887
Christian women and children starving.

421
01:11:18,846 --> 01:11:22,006
Do you mean to tell me
that you intend to let those people die?

422
01:11:35,125 --> 01:11:36,805
How's the war going?

423
01:11:37,245 --> 01:11:38,525
Which war?

424
01:11:39,525 --> 01:11:41,885
One against the President of Mexico.

425
01:11:42,725 --> 01:11:44,565
lt's over.

426
01:11:48,005 --> 01:11:49,245
Who won?

427
01:12:36,323 --> 01:12:37,723
Did you hear something?

428
01:12:43,242 --> 01:12:44,682
Can't go through here.

429
01:12:44,882 --> 01:12:45,842
Why not?

430
01:12:46,082 --> 01:12:48,602
Crow burial ground. Sacred.

431
01:12:50,122 --> 01:12:51,362
We'll have to turn around
and head east.

432
01:12:51,562 --> 01:12:53,442
How far east?

433
01:12:53,802 --> 01:12:55,322
Next pass.

434
01:12:57,242 --> 01:12:58,362
20 miles or so.

435
01:12:58,562 --> 01:13:03,001
Those people are waiting for us!
Now they're freezing, hungry and scared.

436
01:13:03,201 --> 01:13:05,921
Crow only come
with medicine men and burying parties!

437
01:13:06,121 --> 01:13:08,641
-We are not Crows!
-What would happen, Johnson?

438
01:13:09,761 --> 01:13:11,041
l don't know.

439
01:13:13,761 --> 01:13:14,801
l don't know.

440
01:13:17,401 --> 01:13:20,001
This is big medicine.
They guard it with spirits.

441
01:13:20,281 --> 01:13:21,441
You don't believe that.

442
01:13:22,201 --> 01:13:23,560
lt doesn't matter. They do.

443
01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:26,160
You've been up here too long,
believing in this!

444
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:30,120
What chance would l have finding
a way through, just by riding west?

445
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:33,400
Poor chance.
Or none.

446
01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,000
Thanks all the same, Johnson,
but we're riding through.

447
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,599
Sergeant! Prepare to move!

448
01:13:47,799 --> 01:13:48,799
You won't make it.

449
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:55,199
You have to hunt, you said.

450
01:13:57,239 --> 01:13:58,559
l have to try.

451
01:14:07,638 --> 01:14:10,078
Tell your men to keep
behind me in single file.

452
01:14:11,918 --> 01:14:14,118
Tell them to go slow
and stay quiet.

453
01:14:14,518 --> 01:14:15,598
Sergeant!

454
01:14:15,838 --> 01:14:17,398
Single file, slowly.

455
01:14:17,598 --> 01:14:18,878
Yes, sir.

456
01:14:19,078 --> 01:14:20,558
Keep them quiet.

457
01:17:27,589 --> 01:17:28,989
We seem to have escaped.

458
01:17:33,029 --> 01:17:35,709
How long have you
been carrying your squaw?

459
01:18:09,108 --> 01:18:10,667
-Thank you--
-Move them fast.

460
01:18:10,867 --> 01:18:12,547
Crow don't take kindly to trespassing.

461
01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:13,880
An lndian says you search in vain

462
01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:16,760
For what you cannot find

463
01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:21,320
He says you found 1000 ways

464
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:24,320
Of running down your time

465
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,479
An lndian didn't scream it

466
01:28:29,319 --> 01:28:31,399
He said it in a song

467
01:28:33,159 --> 01:28:35,399
And he's never

468
01:28:35,599 --> 01:28:37,599
Been known to be wrong

469
01:33:44,305 --> 01:33:48,905
Where's your mule that kicks holes
in the sky and shakes off its saddle?

470
01:33:49,105 --> 01:33:51,985
Where's your slavering wolf
of the rolling prairie?

471
01:33:52,265 --> 01:33:56,505
Here's your old grizzer brown bear
can clobber bark off a gum tree.

472
01:33:56,745 --> 01:33:59,464
There's a man for you,
Jeremiah Johnson.

473
01:33:59,664 --> 01:34:03,464
l'm half horse, half gator,
and a touch of the earthquake.

474
01:34:03,664 --> 01:34:06,384
l got the prettiest gal,
fastest horse...

475
01:34:06,584 --> 01:34:08,584
...ugliest dog this side of hell.

476
01:34:08,784 --> 01:34:11,824
l can out-jump, out-run, throw down...

477
01:34:12,024 --> 01:34:14,624
...drag out and whip
any man in all Kentucky.

478
01:34:17,984 --> 01:34:19,664
How you been, Jeremiah?

479
01:34:20,024 --> 01:34:23,503
Staying alive, Del.
Ain't that hair l see on your head?

480
01:34:23,983 --> 01:34:25,183
lt sure is.

481
01:34:25,383 --> 01:34:28,823
l've decided that when l depart
from this life, l'd leave something.

482
01:34:29,023 --> 01:34:31,623
At least to be remembered
on some man's lodgepole.

483
01:34:32,023 --> 01:34:33,623
Sound wisdom.

484
01:34:34,583 --> 01:34:35,543
Where you headed?

485
01:34:35,863 --> 01:34:38,103
Same place you are, Jeremiah.

486
01:34:38,303 --> 01:34:39,943
Hell in the end.

487
01:34:49,422 --> 01:34:53,262
With all them lnjuns after you,
l cannot brag about your campsite.

488
01:34:54,502 --> 01:34:57,742
You got old and scary
since you growed hair on your head?

489
01:35:07,021 --> 01:35:10,701
What ever happened to that boy?
The one that didn't talk much?

490
01:35:15,021 --> 01:35:16,821
Never did take him to Hawley.

491
01:35:18,501 --> 01:35:20,621
Stayed with that lnjun gal
all this time?

492
01:35:23,461 --> 01:35:25,101
She wasn't no trouble.

493
01:35:55,779 --> 01:35:57,739
Just like this, one at a time?

494
01:36:01,259 --> 01:36:03,139
You're lucky they were Crows.

495
01:36:03,299 --> 01:36:05,539
Apaches would send 50 at once.

496
01:36:13,018 --> 01:36:14,418
Amongst lnjuns...

497
01:36:14,618 --> 01:36:18,938
...a tribe's greatness is figured on
how mighty its enemies be.

498
01:36:28,098 --> 01:36:29,378
Maybe....

499
01:36:30,858 --> 01:36:33,617
Maybe you'd best go down to a town...

500
01:36:34,537 --> 01:36:36,097
...get out of these mountains.

501
01:36:39,697 --> 01:36:41,777
l've been to a town, Del.

502
01:36:51,257 --> 01:36:52,217
Which way now?

503
01:36:54,377 --> 01:36:55,576
Don't know.

504
01:36:59,056 --> 01:37:03,456
l hear the Big Belt in the Blue
has beavers the size of bobcats.

505
01:37:03,656 --> 01:37:04,776
That so?

506
01:37:05,576 --> 01:37:07,456
l ain't never trapped either...

507
01:37:07,896 --> 01:37:09,536
...but sure would like to.

508
01:37:14,016 --> 01:37:15,936
You will do well, Del.

509
01:37:16,976 --> 01:37:18,015
You will do well.

510
01:37:18,895 --> 01:37:21,575
lf you don't get in
too much trouble with all that hair.

511
01:37:23,575 --> 01:37:25,055
Ain't this something?

512
01:37:25,935 --> 01:37:28,775
l told my pap and mam
l was coming to the mountains...

513
01:37:28,935 --> 01:37:31,535
...to trap and be a mountain man.

514
01:37:32,055 --> 01:37:34,015
Acted like they was gut-shot.

515
01:37:34,215 --> 01:37:35,535
Says: ''Son...

516
01:37:35,735 --> 01:37:39,134
...make your life go here.
Here's where the people is.

517
01:37:39,334 --> 01:37:43,414
Them mountains
is for animals and savages!''

518
01:37:44,094 --> 01:37:46,614
l said: ''Mother Gue...

519
01:37:47,014 --> 01:37:50,734
...the Rocky Mountains
is the marrow of the world.''

520
01:37:50,934 --> 01:37:52,494
And by God, l was right.

521
01:37:53,454 --> 01:37:54,774
Yes, you were.

522
01:37:59,574 --> 01:38:01,253
Which way you headed, Jeremiah?

523
01:38:01,813 --> 01:38:03,453
Canada, maybe.

524
01:38:05,493 --> 01:38:08,653
l hear there's land there
a man has never seen.

525
01:38:12,133 --> 01:38:14,013
Keep your nose in the wind...

526
01:38:14,213 --> 01:38:16,133
...your eyes along the skyline.

527
01:38:16,813 --> 01:38:18,533
l will do that, Del Gue.

528
01:38:22,373 --> 01:38:26,052
l ain't never seen them,
but my common sense tells me...

529
01:38:26,612 --> 01:38:30,492
...the Andes is foothills,
and the Alps is for children to climb.

530
01:38:31,172 --> 01:38:33,532
Keep good care of your hair!

531
01:38:34,652 --> 01:38:37,332
These here are
God's finest sculpturings...

532
01:38:37,532 --> 01:38:39,852
...and there ain't no laws
for the brave ones!

533
01:38:40,052 --> 01:38:42,372
And there ain't no asylums
for the crazy ones!

534
01:38:42,572 --> 01:38:45,411
And there ain't no churches
except this right here.

535
01:38:45,611 --> 01:38:47,091
And there ain't no priests...

536
01:38:47,331 --> 01:38:48,691
...excepting the birds!

537
01:38:49,011 --> 01:38:53,691
l are a mountain man! And l'll
live until an arrow or bullet finds me.

538
01:38:53,971 --> 01:38:55,771
And then l'll leave my bones...

539
01:38:55,971 --> 01:38:59,171
...on this great map
of the magnificent....

540
01:41:58,403 --> 01:41:59,803
Right here, mister.

541
01:42:05,642 --> 01:42:06,882
Where's the Crazy Woman?

542
01:42:07,562 --> 01:42:08,962
She's gone.

543
01:42:11,442 --> 01:42:12,602
Walk over this way.

544
01:42:22,522 --> 01:42:23,482
Gone where?

545
01:42:24,522 --> 01:42:25,562
Dead.

546
01:42:27,721 --> 01:42:29,561
One of them mounds.

547
01:42:36,801 --> 01:42:37,721
Who are you?

548
01:42:38,601 --> 01:42:40,201
My name's Qualen.

549
01:42:41,521 --> 01:42:42,601
l'm a settler.

550
01:42:44,001 --> 01:42:45,241
Settler.

551
01:42:56,840 --> 01:42:58,320
What are you going to do?

552
01:43:25,639 --> 01:43:27,879
l do it when lndians are coming.

553
01:43:44,678 --> 01:43:45,958
You're him.

554
01:43:47,238 --> 01:43:48,918
Ain't you him?

555
01:43:54,397 --> 01:43:55,597
What's this?

556
01:43:57,117 --> 01:43:58,317
lt's for you.

557
01:44:00,357 --> 01:44:02,237
lf you be Johnson.

558
01:44:04,117 --> 01:44:05,557
A might early, ain't they?

559
01:44:06,117 --> 01:44:08,477
lt ain't a grave like the other.

560
01:44:10,197 --> 01:44:13,797
More like a statue or a monument.

561
01:44:20,556 --> 01:44:21,916
We never see them.

562
01:44:24,716 --> 01:44:26,436
We never even hear them.

563
01:44:27,236 --> 01:44:31,236
We look and there's a new piece of
bone or hide, or something been left.

564
01:44:32,276 --> 01:44:34,076
So we know they've been here.

565
01:44:37,276 --> 01:44:39,155
Some say you're dead
on account of this.

566
01:44:42,115 --> 01:44:45,035
Others say you never will be
on account of this.

567
01:44:45,435 --> 01:44:46,715
lt won't save anything.

568
01:44:49,435 --> 01:44:52,315
Sending them out to hide
in the corncrib.

569
01:45:51,072 --> 01:45:52,112
What's on the spit?

570
01:45:54,272 --> 01:45:55,392
Grown particular?

571
01:45:57,912 --> 01:45:59,272
Not about feeding.

572
01:45:59,912 --> 01:46:02,752
Just the company l keep.

573
01:46:16,231 --> 01:46:18,271
Thank you kindly.

574
01:46:27,111 --> 01:46:28,551
You've come far, pilgrim.

575
01:46:31,070 --> 01:46:32,670
Feels like far.

576
01:46:35,710 --> 01:46:37,150
Was it worth the trouble?

577
01:46:40,550 --> 01:46:41,430
What trouble?

578
01:46:51,909 --> 01:46:54,149
You cook good rabbit, pilgrim.

579
01:46:57,189 --> 01:46:58,349
Cold up here.

580
01:47:02,149 --> 01:47:03,669
What brings you up so high?

581
01:47:03,869 --> 01:47:05,029
Griz.

582
01:47:06,829 --> 01:47:09,029
Avalanche took the cabin.

583
01:47:09,229 --> 01:47:10,909
Lost my mule.

584
01:47:12,029 --> 01:47:13,868
We swum out of it.

585
01:47:14,228 --> 01:47:15,668
But no matter.

586
01:47:15,868 --> 01:47:18,268
Weren't no griz left anyway.

587
01:47:25,668 --> 01:47:28,068
Would you happen to know
what month of the year it is?

588
01:47:34,947 --> 01:47:36,867
No, l truly wouldn't.

589
01:47:37,867 --> 01:47:39,747
l'm sorry, pilgrim.

590
01:47:43,627 --> 01:47:45,067
March.

591
01:47:45,827 --> 01:47:47,587
Maybe, April.

592
01:47:48,587 --> 01:47:50,067
March maybe.

593
01:47:50,267 --> 01:47:52,227
l don't believe April.

594
01:47:52,987 --> 01:47:54,627
Winter's a long time going?

595
01:48:00,146 --> 01:48:02,106
Stays long this high.

596
01:48:13,546 --> 01:48:17,826
March is a green,
muddy month down below.

597
01:48:18,506 --> 01:48:20,385
Some folks like it.

598
01:48:20,585 --> 01:48:22,545
Farmers mostly.

599
01:48:29,785 --> 01:48:32,505
You have done well
to keep so much hair...

600
01:48:32,705 --> 01:48:34,865
...when so many are after it.

601
01:48:35,785 --> 01:48:38,505
l hope you will fare well.

602
01:50:17,020 --> 01:50:19,860
And some folks say

603
01:50:20,420 --> 01:50:22,740
He's up there still
