The Mountain Men

An exciting adventure about the first true heroes of the American West who hunted to survive in the remote wilds of the Rocky Mountains in the 1830's. Charlton Heston stars as the tough and wily trapper, Bill Tyler, who sees his livelihood being threatened, partially by the fall in demand for the rich beaver pelts and more menacingly by Chief Heavy Eagle and his braves who are now fighting for survival against the white men who are quickly taking over their traditional hunting grounds. Ultimately, Tyler and Heavy Eagle have to resolve their differences in dramatic conflict. Spectacularly filmed in the high mountain wilderness and set to the magnificent score Michel Legrand, The Mountain Men is unforgettable entertainment.
