The Deerslayer (1978 TV Movie)
8/10
Fascinating TV sequel to The Last of the Mohicans

One of the things that strikes me right off in this was the saving of the blundering, pompous British officer from the rushing creek. Having survived getting across its mountains alone, I was nearly drowned in a creek not much larger and no faster on the east coast of Aristazabal Island, B.C.! What did Steve Forrest get paid for his "stunt work" in this? :-)

Madeleine Stowe being licked by a bear! LUCKY bear. Amazing. In 1978 she was a slim&pretty - beautiful - 20 years old.

It could have been simplified, but it was excellent nonetheless.

And John Anderson was great as usual. :-)
