1980 Adventure /Western film starringCharlton Heston andBrian Keith .Plot
Brian Keith stars as an argumentative, curmudgeonly mountain man by the name of Henry Frapp. His co-star, Charlton Heston, in the role of Bill Tyler, is Henry's good friend and fellow trapper. Together, they trap beaver, fought Indians, and become classicly inebriated at a mountain man rendezvous while trying to sell their "plews", or beaver skins, to a cutthroat French trader named Fontanel.
Henry manages to survive a scalping by a ruthless Blackfoot warrior named Heavy Eagle, and is reunited with Bill Tyler later in the movie to engage in a final, glorious battle with a Blackfoot war party led by Heavy Eagle.
