Product Description

Nothing will stop him now. Not the winter's bitter cold. Not the knife-like stabs of hunger. Brutally wounded mountain man Zachary Bass (Richard Harris), left for dead by his furtrapping partners, somehow pushes on. And he's driven by one of the most relentless powers in all nature: revenge. In Man in the Wilderness, Harris (Unforgiven) recaptures the ferocity and heroism of his A Man Called Horse. Bass makes a 600-mile journey of vengeance across the 1820s American Northwest -- facing every obstacle with a savagery greater than the untamed wilds. Two-time Oscar winner John Huston* plays Captain Henry, a weathered, craggy-voiced tyrant haunted by the fear that the man he's sure is dead will somehow return. Called "extraordinary uncompromising in the utmost" by the Los Angeles Times, Man in the Wilderness is fury come to vivid life. No other man would have lasted a day, but Zach Bass triumphs in the adventure of a lifetime.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Spirit Journey (Spoiler Alert!)
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2014
Verified Purchase
I gave this movie five stars because this is a classic movie and is done in the spirit when movies where based on a solid theme and plot, hard working actors, and great direction. This movie is partly based on true events, and presents Richard Harris as a man left behind during a trapping expedition into the wilderness of untamed America in the early 1800s. He was mauled by a grizzly bear and left for dead by his companions. Using shear strength of will, and the heightened capacity to survive, he miraculously gathers enough strength to crawl, then limp, and finally walk back to his companions. We also see the Native Americans following him, the beautiful landscape, and the surprise ending.
This is a beautiful movie about a real life event, superbly acted and directed, and I would highly recommend this to anyone who truly loves the outdoors and the spirit of adventure.
I watched this movie again last night and I have more of an analysis of elements that make this movie great!. In the opening scenes we see a cross high up among the trees. Then we see that it is the main spar of a boat. It seems out of place in the wilderness in 1820. The boat is on a makeshift trailer being pulled by a mule team and it is filled with furs and pelts for a trapping and exploration party in the wilderness. The Grizzly Bear attacks Bass (Richard Harris) and Captain Henry (John Huston) patches him up and orders the men to leave him as he will most likely die. One of the trappers is a Native American and leaves a prayer and a prayer bag for Bass. So we have the cross and now the spirituality of the Native Americans competing with each other in the wilderness. Bass has many flashbacks were we find him in his youth, the death of his mother, and his stubbornness in school, especially concerning religion. When the master asks Bass who created the world, Bass would not answer, even when threatened with a stick wielded by the master. We now see his personal stubbornness. Perhaps the foundation for his willingness to survive through pure stubborn strength. So we have two competing religions in the wilderness, surrounded by the aura of Manifest Destiny exemplified by the boat that is purely out of place in the woods, and the Native Americans who are fascinated by the boat and follow it for miles.
As Bass makes his recovery in the wilderness, he finds food, and traps animals to make clothing, and witness the attack on other trappers, and the birth of a child by a Native American family. This allows him time for introspection and eventually changes him from a person driven by revenge to a person who just wants to go home and find his son. This is evident when he finds an injured white rabbit and repairs its broken leg, and actually starts reading the Bible, which he carries with him.
The final scene is an attack by the Native Americans on the boat in a muddy river bottom with a low flowing river. Bass emerges from the woods and heads towards the boat, he is intercepted by the Native Americans, and is attacked, but the chief recognizes him as the bear attack victim, and stops the battle. He approaches Bass and speaks some words about The Great Spirit and urges Bass to attack the people who left him to die. You'll have to see the outcome yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars This film holds up

I saw this film in the theater when it first came out, and it left a lasting impression. I decided to rent it and see whether I liked it as well all these decades later. To my surprise, the answer is yes. Considering the fact that it was made in the era before CGI, the bear attack is plenty realistic, and I very much like the quiet, contemplative nature of the film overall. There is a brutal scene involving a bison that sensitive viewers should look away from if they're particularly troubled by the portrayal of animal suffering.

This is essentially the same story as the DiCaprio film, The Revenant (the true story of Hugh Glass), but in my opinion--despite being a Leo fan--Man In the Wilderness is preferable. Viewers who love Jeremiah Johnson or Lonesome Dove will likely enjoy this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning photography and excellent Blu-ray transfer
Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2016

I first saw this film in the local cinema around 1971, when it was first released and I have kept it in mind ever since. The epic story about Zachary Bass and how he survived in the wilderness after he had been mauled by a grizzly bear and how his trapping comrades left him to die alone in the wilderness has simply made such an great impression on me through the years. The film is based on a true story about Hugh Glass, a fur trapper which in the 1820s was mauled by a grizzly bear and survived in the upper Missouri region in the northwest territory of the US.

To talk about the transfer of the film to Blu-ray, the following must be said: The photograpy is stunning and especially how the light is used throughout the film and that comes out very well in the Blu-ray tranfer. (I used to own a dvd-copy of the film and the transfer was very disapointing and I couldn't recognize the film from my cinema experience) If you like films that deals with survival and especially with the great wilderness scenery iin the background,, this is the film for you. It is also a very exciting story and perhaps the best film ever, featuring Richard Harris? You can compare this film with "The Revenant", from 2015 which also is based on the story of the fur trapper, Hugh Glass. This film, "Man in the Wilderness" in this Blu-ray transfer, is highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disapointing
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2016

It's just ok. The story is loosely based on the true story of Hugh Glass, and his survival of a grizzly bear attack, and then being left for dead. Instead of being true to the actual story, the whole movie is centered around a group of men hauling a big wooden boat overland with a team of 22 mules to the Missouri river.
Lots of things in the movie make no sense. Like why they didn't just put Mr. Bass on the boat and take him with? Why sew up his wounds, and then tell the two men if he's not dead by morning to kill him? There is no historical or logical sense to the events as portrayed in the movie.
The actual story is much more interesting, and would have made a much better movie, if they had bothered to stick to it. As it is, the movie just plods along, from one poorly contructed scene to the next.
The cinematography is above average, and the acting is very good as well, just a lousy script. Even taking in to account when the movie was made, and the "existential" style that was so popular at the time, this movie is still a disappointment.

Man in the wilderness goes through a myriad of themes and experiences- good for 8 and above. And discussing afterwards. Animal violence might be too much for younger kids.

Sono contento di aver ricevuto il DVD, anche se mi sarebbe piaciuto che vi fosse anche l'audio in italiano. Però l'audio in spagnolo è comprensibilissimo e anche l'originale in inglese permette di fare esercizio e migliorare la propria conoscenza linguistica. La pellicola è molto bella, perché descrive una vicenda realistica e i paesaggi, così come la storia stessa, sono stupendi.
