  • One of my favorite movies, still watch it every so often. It means even more, knowing the history of the man.
  • This is one of my all time favorite movies iv seen it probably a couple dozen times and It never gets old watching it
  • I was a pre-teen when the movie was released, but I loved it. It was a good movie, and the real life story is even better.
  • While on vacation in Cody, I stopped by an outdoor museum there and discovered the small cemetery where Jeremiah Johnson was re-burried. It is nice to watch a video that is historicaly accurate. Thank you.
  • Wow. Always liked that movie. A breed of men that no longer excist but, gladly never forgotten.
  • One of several of my favorite movies which has been watched and will be watching again. They don't make them like these anymore.
  • It is my favourite western & Redford also says it's his favourite of all the films he's made because, he said, 'It's a great American tale!'
  • Name sounded familiar. When I saw Robert Redford I remembered. I was a kid and didn't realize it was a true story😮interesting 😊
  • I was 16 and a sophomore in high school in 1972. Just got my drivers license. One of my first dates was this movie. Damn what great memories. It was a more tender time in those days. “You’ve done well pilgrim to keep your hair when so many are after it”
  • Loved the film and for me it actually showed what an accomplished actor Robert Redford is.
  • I'm a woman, lol, I had a Hawkins rifle, great gun, I thought the movie was good, 👍 I did my history, Yes, this is a true story - excellent 👌😊😊
  • 'The way that you wonder is the way that you choose and the day that tarry is the day that you lose, through sunshine or thunder you'll always wonder where fairer winds blow'
  • the warrior that was assigned to guard Johnson was probably only 16 or 17 and made the mistake of charging at him in mock attack and was kicked so hard in the chest knocking the wind out of him and rendering him unconscious, a story relayed to an author about liver eatin' ,by one of Johnsons' friends
  • Truly one of the best westerns I’ve watched and now after watching this I will watch again.
  • For all - yes, Jeremiah Johnson the movie was based on a true story. The book that lays out the story is called “Crow Killer - The Saga of Liver-Eating Johnson”, by Raymond W. Thorp and Robert Bunker. I thought he was still buried in The VA cemetery of Sepulveda Blvd, but glad to hear he made it back to the wilderness. I first read the book in the 70s and still have a copy. I surmise it is still available on Amazon. B. H. Spratlin
