A great example of deep dialogue. On the surface, they are talking about cooking rabbit, "what ya been up to", the weather and season, etc. But between the lines, they are discussing the hardships of being a man, giving respect for one's growth and accomplishments, respecting each other's emotional boundaries, and sharing their concerns for the future. This is how men talk when we talk about meaningful things.

Living in a city is pretty safe but your always working to make money for status and creature comforts that you really don't need. I'll choose the former. If I come across your path, or others.

I never really noticed it until now, but Lapp slowly approaches & sits away from the fire when initially talking to Johnson. Even "old friends" are cautious when meeting after a long time. It's almost like he had heard the stories, or perhaps just saw/sensed that Johnson was on the edge. He finds his old friend alive & well over a well-cooked rabbit haunch, & heads on his way.

As my sawmill mentor once said, "my church is right out there" as he pointed out the window of his cabin into the woods. And Peace to You, from 8300' in the woods of Colorado. Got a buck today. Maybe the most connected to Source hunt I have ever had. The dirt under my feet truly felt different than any other day I've been out this week. I spotted deer within 2 minutes. Though not a cocky feeling, I knew one of the bucks would allow me to harvest it's meat. it wasn't a ego led feeling. I know what that is like all to well. Just a knowing of sorts. I gave thanks to the amazing creature for it's offering of meat to feed my family. Spent the morning with my good friend Paul, who helped me haul out the carcass, pull off it's hide (so he can tan it) , and then we quartered it, getting back straps, tenderloins, brisket, and neck. My other neighbor saw us drive by with it and came over to hear the story of the hunt, and help us hang it and quarter it, as we harvested ever ounce of meat we could. I gave him a hind quarter, b/c he's yet to get an elk or deer after many years of hunting. Went out for the last few hours of daylight with my wife Geizi, to help her fill her doe tag. We explored a new to us area behind the cabin, a trail we've never hiked together. It led to a steep cliff. What a view. What a time with her. It was a full, rich day... in the woods, at the cabin. I am grateful for friends, for wife, for dogs, for cat, and grateful for my ability to occasionally slow down, breath, and simply listen... Allowing spirit to guide me to and fro. I'm no saint, and I struggle too sometimes due to my own choosing of insanity instead of love, but there are days like today, when I am reminded that we are truly one, we all share that connection to Source. Two days ago my wife and I let go of one of our oldest dogs, Oliver (we are now left with only four dogs). We held him and looked into his eyes as he left his body. More gratitude and appreciation for that and all shared experiences with him. I couldn't go out hunting the next day. I was emotionally weakened, emotionally exhausted. I thought I would not have it in me to hunt any more this season. Then I heard a voice speak to me late last night, after my gig. It said "get up early, see the sunrise, feel the chill in the air, the dirt under your boots, smell the sage brush. It Will Be Good." and it was, in so many ways. Tears welling up. More gratitude. Thanks to You for inspiring me to write this tale of the recent days.

Had to come out to care for my aging mother a few years ago but shes dead now & Jan wants to go back ASAP! Me too. The bush owns our heart but Christ owns our souls & w that we are returning to the bush. Not trying to sound "preachy", but when Christ puts the RIGHT 2 people together theres nothing better.

I also was disappointed that this clip wasn’t longer. Said the exact line to myself.

The mark of a fine actor is not just their words but the silence too, the weight and meaning the silence brings to a situation.... Sublime...

The scene seems realistic enough, but sometimes I wonder if this was Bearclaw's ghost paying one last visit before he leaves this earth? Perhaps he didn't swim out of the avalanche, but he told God that he wanted to say some last words to his understudy before he departed.

I was only 4 years old when my grandpa took me to see this film. My memory of it is scant, but this final scene with the rabbit on the spit and Jeremiah's loneliness is what I remember of the most.

One of the greatest movies ever made, epic in every sense of the word.

This scene explains the meaning of life so well. "We're it worth the trouble" " what trouble"

"I've been to a town"....one of the greatest lines ever....

same story, i didnt really understand it back then maybe cause it was a tv edit and most of the violence was toned down or i was just to young.

Classic film of the struggle between man and nature .Redford and geer are truly fantastic in this one of a kind film. Love how few words they speak but say so much and with such heartfelt meaning.

2:33 Many years ago I remember waking up, walking over to the window and seeing the sun on the horizon. I didn't know if it was coming up or going down. I didn't know what time it was or even what day it was. It was one of the happiest times of my life.

One of my top 3 movies. Must hv watched 50times. Like many others quotes of lines from this movie find their way into every day life often. I feel a kindred spirit with all those who have left comments. Can’t cheat the mountain pilgrim…

"Keep your nose in the wind and your eyes along the sky line"

A timeless classic. Haunted me as a kid, and still does today.

one of my all time favorite movies of all time ...

"Where you headed?" "Same place you are Jeremiah, same place you are..."

God..,riding in on his white steed is taken aback by his creation’s advance and introspection. A truly great scene.

I first saw this movie over 40 years ago and it did more to shape my thinking than any other thing in my life. "I've been to a town" and "what trouble" do pretty much say it all.

This is still my Most Favorite Movie to this Day!! And Probably Always will be!!

As all the scenes in Jeremiah Johnson, this is also extremely well directed n acted. Should be one of the 'must see' movies on any movie lovers list.

My older brothers took me to see this movie when it was in theatres back in 1972. It has remained my favourite movie to this day and is likely the primary reason my wife and I had lived the last 27 years in the woods.

This movie got me into backpacking over 40 years ago. I think about it at times when I'm sitting around my campfire at night. This scene in particular.

"Some folks like it, farmers". I'll never forget you saying that line numerous times when we lived in Colorado in the 70's. RIP Chuck Norton, you were one very rugged mountain man yourself.

I have always loved the way he says, "Thank you, kindly"

This man has seen alot of blood spilled even from his own hands you can see hes unattached at this point.. I feel for his soul..

This movie makes even the cold and snowy Rockies warm and cozy. And Tim McIntire's closing song doesn't hurt, either.

Gotta watch this movie a couple of times a year just to remind me that what I'm doing is right .. for me at least

Not much makes me cry, but this scene does it.

This movie came out when my brothers and I were very into black powder rifle and buck skinning( for you pilgrims that means dressing up like fur traders and shooting old time front loading rifles). I still have two of my rifles and just went deer hunting in Texas with one. It gathered a small crowd of modern rifle hunters and everyone wanted to shoot it!
