On the latest episode of The Rewatchables, Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan and Bill’s dad don their imaginary mountain man gear to revisit Robert Redford’s classic frontier tale, Jeremiah Johnson. They dig into Sydney Pollack’s direction, Redford’s rugged, stoic turn, and the film’s snowy wilderness vibes, all sprinkled with dad jokes and podcasting campfire storytelling.
Between breakdowns of the cabin brawls and shout-outs to sidekick Willow (Will Geer), the trio riff on surviving the Rockies, share favorite moments, and ponder how they’d fare against the cold. It’s a warm, off-the-grid mix of film nerdery and family banter—with no actual frostbite required.
