Like Greyhunter I just bought the DVD on sale. As all above... good movie for the settings
and the action sake. Decent portrayal of the times. Hope it does spark more public interest
in the Mountain Man era and 'true' frontier history.
As always in movies now, I just try to overlook technical and historical errors -
but always wonder why Hollywood feels they have to change it so much.
One point - the actual story of Hugh has little detail and not much of human interaction
about his struggle to get back to 'civilization', so the movie folks probably felt the 'Alone
in the Wilderness' theme would be a bit to boring for the modern 'need more violence and
drama' audience.
But I did like and and will have another 'My Mountain Man Movies' watchathon one of these
days with another to add to it
