Description
Superstar Robert Redford ("Up Close and Personal," "Indecent Proposal") stars in this powerful and unforgettable wilderness epic of a man who turns his back on civilization and learns a new code of survival in a brutal land of isolated mountains and hostile Indians. The Los Angeles Times calls this box-office hit "an uncommon, extraordinarily appealing film experience," directed by Sidney Pollack ("The Firm," "Tootsie") and written by John Milius ("Apocalypse Now," "Magnum Force") and Academy Award-winner Edward Anhalt ("Member of the Wedding," "Panic in the Streets").

Classic 70s 'Western Revisionism'
This is a mature western genre movie, with unexpected turns, and fine performances from the entire cast. The landscape is shot .. evocatively, and the soundtrack complements the them of frontiers and loneliness.
A tip for some – the film has an introduction and intermission using a still from the movie. For some of us, this is a familiar relic of the old days of cinema, but for others it just may be confusing. Simply fast forward – or chill – for a minute before the film commences.

The best ever western
I read the book and it was very good and although the film does not follow the story line of the book exactly it is more concise and better in my opinion. A great adventure story extremely well acted and fantastic entertainment.

One of the his best!
A beautiful film, depicting one mans journey of discovery through life. Atmospheric and wonderfully shot, you get a great sense of his isolation on the frontier as the years pass. Watched this with my dad many years ago, and only rediscovered it recently. Rest assured it's on the list of films that I'll want my son to experience as he grows up. Fantastic acting, decent action scenes, a gripping storyline and one of the best film endings ever. Sit back, hit play and simply enjoy!
