Production Notes
Amazon.com essential video:
After they first worked together on the 1966 film This Property Is Condemned, director Sydney Pollack and Robert Redford continued their long-lasting collaboration with this 1972 drama set during the mid-1800s, about one man's rugged effort to shed the burden of civilization and learn to survive in the wilderness of the Rocky Mountains. Will Geer is perfectly cast as the seasoned trapper who teaches Jeremiah Johnson (Redford) how to survive against harsh winters, close encounters with grizzly bears, and hostile Crow Indians. In the course of his adventure, Johnson marries the daughter of a Flathead Indian chief, forms a makeshift family, and ultimately assumes a mythic place in Rocky Mountain folklore. Shot entirely on location in Utah, the film boasts an abundance of breathtaking widescreen scenery, and the story (despite a PG rating) doesn't flinch from the brutality of the wilderness. --Jeff Shannon

Jeremiah Johnson is a movie with great actors, Redford is perfect and the landscapes and feel of the old west is always in the air. Will Geer plays a great mountain man friend of Redford
The music score by Rubenstein and McIntire is top notch

This is another one of those great Westerns. It's simply a classic and a great movie. Redford is excellent and so is the story line, except for the sad ending. It's somewhat of an indictment of our society and the way we look down on those who aren't like us. It shows the harshness of the old West and the way people had to eke out a living in some pretty tough conditions.

Despite the Oscars for "Out of Africa," Sydney Pollack was underrated as both a director and an actor. Since his death two weeks ago, I've been revisiting his films on DVD. Least favorite: "The Way We Were"--a political chick flick in which the movie, like its anti-hero, sells out to sentimentality. Favorite: this one. I realize my "handle" and location indicate a certain prejudice in "Jeremiah Johnson"'s favor, but ask yourself where you've seen better cinematography of our West or a better performance by Robert Redford. How Pollack got studio money to make such a stark epic is the greatest miracle of all.
As an actor, Pollack is best known for his turn as Dustin Hoffman's frustrated agent in "Tootsie." Apparently it wasn't much of a stretch, since Pollack was Hoffman's very frustrated director. However, his role as the cynical billionaire in "Eyes Wide Shut" was one of the best things in the film. Best of all his roles was as the airhead-infatuated husband in Woody Allen's "Husbands and Wives," in which he had more states of mind or heart to convey: jaded, besmitten, ferociously disillusioned, finally compromising with full-circle return to precisely the same marriage he had left. A great performance.
