Factual error: The crazy lady, whose family (except the boy), were murdered by Indians, sings "Shall we gather at the river" after Jeremiah buries them. Only that wasn't written until 1864.
Jeremiah Johnson (1972)
1 factual error
Directed by: Sydney Pollack
Starring: Robert Redford, Will Geer, Delle Bolton, Josh Albee
Other mistake: During the ‘rescue' mission to save the trapped wagon train, none of the riders are carrying packs of food or any supplies. One man is carrying a military unit banner on a pole. Unrealistic for this type of activity.
Bear Claw Chris Lapp: Bear Claw is building a hot coal bed putting and covering them to sleep on, tells Jeremiah to do like wise. Middle of the night Jeremiahs blankets start smoking and jumps out of bed.
Bear Claw Chris Lapp: Bear Claw looks up from his bed and says" Didn't put enough dirt down, Saw it right off"
