Ses montagnes. Son calme. Ses grandes chasses. Sa jeune épouse. Avec tout cela, tout aurait dû être différent.
Dans les années 1850, Jeremiah Johnson, lassé de la civilisation, décide de vivre en solitaire et de devenir trappeur dans les montagnes Rocheuses. Mal préparé à la vie rude de cette région, il parvient difficilement à subsister. Jusqu'au jour où Griffe d'Ours, un vieux chasseur, l'accueille dans sa cabane et lui inculque les rudiments de son art. Devenu apte à affronter seul les périls de la montagne, Johnson quitte Griffe d'Ours et se lie d'amitié avec des Indiens Crow. Il recueille Caleb, un garçon muet, seul survivant d'un massacre de Blancs par les Indiens, et épouse une Amérindienne, Cygne, que lui donne un chef nommé Deux-Langues...

Um ótimo filme que é um grande prazer de assistir.
A quiet, measured meditation on the latter days of the old west, _Jeremiah Johnson_ stars Robert Redford as a know-nothing who plunges himself into the harsh Rocky Mountain winter and learns on the job. He’s way out of his depth, right away, and everyone can see it. Some, like the shopkeep who points the way from train to wilderness, merely smirk and shake their heads, having watched the same story a hundred times before. Others take a more active role, like the wizened old grizzly hunter who takes pity and shows him the ropes, or the skin-headed scoundrel who repays Johnson's generosity by leading him into tough situations. Lessons come in many forms, and Jeremiah is hungry to learn. He’s a compelling figure, if a stoic one; versatile in his capability to adapt to a situation, whether its demands be physical or mental. Johnson endures some hard times, but he’s rewarded with moments of great beauty which never seem wasted. Much of this film was shot on Redford’s vast personal property in Utah, and the star’s familiarity with the land allows us to behold a number of stunning vistas. Plenty of time to soak them in, too, as director Sydney Pollack seems equally enchanted by the area’s natural majesty. It’s enough to put anyone in a contemplative mood, so it comes as no surprise that the mountain man often surrenders himself to reflection, pairing his inner compassion and determination with a serene outer calm that betrays no weakness. He’s like a naturalist Bob Ross in these scenes, which makes for good existential conflict when unfair circumstances push him to a breaking point. Once he crosses that line, the film’s mood shifts and its tempo picks up, but Jeremiah doesn’t change much. Though he’s now fighting for his life in different ways, he still takes challenges in stride and responds with due consideration. It can sometimes feel ponderous and flat, but _Jeremiah Johnson_’s sweeping depiction of self-discovery in a broad, isolated wilderness finds strength and meaning when it needs to. Redford puts good work into a role that isn’t scripted to be very forthcoming, and his way of life feels romantic, authentic and enveloping. Peaceful at times, stirring at times, stagnant at times.
This is a great movie one of the best to Touchin the lives of a mountain man. Great performances all around
A grand sweeping tale of an early settlers life out in the mountains. Some parts get pretty grim, but there's a few rays of hope throughout as Redford shows off his ability to endure. pretty great score too.
