00:02:15It is possible that the white man's discovered some kind of remedy cure
00:02:23Remedy something to make your people strong
00:02:30You will have to trade with a white man
00:02:36I have never traded with a white man. I ain't asking to trade trade sake

00:02:52Who will save us from the white man
00:03:00You
00:03:10In the summer of 1840 a smallpox epidemic wiped out over half of the Blackfoot Nation I
00:03:19Was a young woman then and this country was known as the Indian Territory
00:03:2549 years later after the wagon trains had moved westward and the cowboys arrived with their herds of cattle and
00:03:33Pushed the buffalo off of the grasslands
00:03:36It was to become the state of Montana
00:03:39But in my youth this big sky country belonged to the eagle the elk the buffalo and the bear
00:03:49The people here were as much a part of the land as the wind and the Sun
00:03:56I
00:03:58Was a young woman then and this country was known as the Indian Territory
00:04:0349 years later after the wagon trains had moved westward and the cowboys arrived with their herds of cattle and
00:04:10Looking north is Canada where the aloof and proud Blackfoot tribes blended like shadows into the landscape
00:04:18There for generations they have told around their campfires the legend of a great young chief of the Blackfoot and
00:04:37Of a white man who was a young man who was a young man who was a young man who was a young man
00:04:45who was a young man who was a young man who was a
00:04:48girl I
00:04:51Was that girl and the Blackfoot chief was called
00:05:18Oh
00:05:48Oh
00:06:04Because his people were in deadly peril
00:06:07Winterhawk was forced to ride to the white man's camp
00:06:11The only white people in this country then were mountain men and a few missionaries
00:06:17Some of the mountain men like Winterhawk's friend Elkhorn Guthrie
00:06:22Married Indian women and built strong bonds of friendship with the tribe
00:06:28Back then
00:06:30Winterhawk was probably the most mysterious Indian in the West
00:06:35even to the Indians
00:06:37No white man, but Guthrie had ever seen him
00:06:40We'd heard of Winterhawk, but there was some doubt. He really existed
00:06:46It was said by the Indians that this legendary and mysterious young chief
00:06:51Riding like the wind on his spotted white horse
00:06:55Was a messenger of the spirits
00:06:58That he could smell like a wolf run like an antelope and see like an eagle
00:07:06The furs he trapped were said to be the finest in the land
00:07:16So
00:07:46So
00:08:16So
00:08:47I am clayanna finley
00:08:49My brother cotton and I had come west with our uncle will finley who was a missionary and a trader
00:08:55He was taking us to join our father
00:08:59The yearly fur rendezvous was a big event in our lives
00:09:02For all the people for a hundred miles around gathered to trade and enjoy each other's company
00:09:16So
00:09:47So
00:10:00No way
00:10:16So
00:10:46Is
00:11:03Was blind

00:12:16Okay
00:12:19Nope
00:12:34I don't know what he is
00:12:36But my guess is right. He's blackfeet
00:12:39Anybody here speak blackfeet?
00:12:41Anybody here speak blackfeet?
00:12:43Yeah, I know a little of the tongue
00:12:47Okay
00:13:03I come to get medicine
00:13:11Trade
00:13:17For cure
00:13:19Medicine
00:13:22Remedy
00:13:25Well now the cure and the remedy for what
00:13:31Small
00:13:34Small pucks
00:13:46Right
00:13:58Well, uh
00:14:00we can't help you here, but him and me we know a man that lives over there that
00:14:05Maybe he can help you
00:14:07if you'll just
00:14:09Come with us. We'll take you over and talk with him
00:14:12That'd be all right
00:14:16You just follow along behind us kind of hang back a little though
00:14:20So
00:14:44Move
00:14:51What do you want
00:15:05Get over there
00:15:20So
00:15:51So
00:15:54Let's go let's go
00:16:02One of them got away it don't matter go get them first
00:16:21So
00:16:23From the sound of gunfire we knew something had happened in the woods
00:16:27Watching the young chief on his magnificent horse as he raced away
00:16:32I heard someone say
00:16:34It's got to be the one they call winterhawk
00:16:50So
00:17:09Now long after the sound of his hoofbeats had faded in the distance and the shock of those murderous shots had passed
00:17:18The sight of him
00:17:20Riding away
00:17:22Stayed in my thoughts
00:17:24Bits of stories I had heard about winterhawk came to mind
00:17:28And I wondered
00:17:30How did this man exert such power by his mere presence?
00:17:36It gave me a very strange feeling
00:17:50Ah
00:17:53Ah
00:17:55So
00:17:58So
00:18:19Vienna
00:18:21I don't want you going out no more at night alone
00:18:24Especially after what happened today
00:18:26I'm, all right
00:18:28Uncle will
00:18:29Who is winterhawk?
00:18:30I don't know
00:18:32He's the son of chief redcap and that gives him pretty high breeding
00:18:38so
00:18:39So if it means what I think it means
00:18:42He'll be back you mean he'll be back for gates and scoby
00:18:47I figure he'll locate us long before he does gates or scoby
00:18:51Yeah
00:18:52When you found those two dead braves, was there any sign which way gates and scoby headed?
00:18:57It looked like to me they headed down the river
00:19:02And the smell of him I wish he was heading downwind son
00:19:09And I say we go after gates and scoby
00:19:14And turn him over to winterhawk that might work
00:19:16But I don't think winterhawk's going to be too particular about who he gets even with
00:19:46Hey
00:20:17Oh
00:20:37Sis do you believe in god?
00:20:42Of course I do cotton

00:20:57Then what is he
00:21:00Oh gosh cotton
00:21:02That's gonna be hard for you to understand
00:21:05He's uh everything and he knows all about you
00:21:09He judges what's in a man's heart
00:21:11Oh
00:21:13Like our pa

00:21:17No, not exactly like our pa

00:43:01I ain't scared of you.
00:43:02I ain't scared of you.
00:43:03I ain't scared of you.
00:43:04I ain't scared of you.
00:43:05I ain't scared of you.
00:43:06I ain't scared of you.
00:43:07I ain't scared of you.
00:43:08I ain't scared of you.
00:43:09I ain't scared of you.
00:43:10I ain't scared of you.
00:43:11I ain't scared of you.
00:43:12I ain't scared of you.
00:43:13I ain't scared of you.
00:43:14I ain't scared of you.
00:43:15I ain't scared of you.
00:43:16I ain't scared of you.
00:43:17I ain't scared of you.
00:43:18I ain't scared of you.
00:43:19I ain't scared of you.
00:43:20I ain't scared of you.
00:43:21I ain't scared of you.
00:43:22Go in.
00:43:31Guthrie still comes.
00:43:34How many?
00:43:35Here's with five.
00:43:36Two others follow.
00:43:38One day behind.
00:43:41We will fight?
00:43:43Guthrie is wise man.
00:43:46He will not bring white men on our land.
00:43:51Guthrie, he thinks like a Blackfeet.
00:43:56He is still a white man.
00:43:59He will follow.
00:44:04Should man
00:44:06fight his brother?
00:44:09I do not listen to myself.
00:44:13I listen to Winterhawk.
00:44:18Take two.
00:44:19Stop Guthrie.
00:44:35And if Guthrie dies?
00:44:38Then
00:44:40it is the way it must be.
00:44:43I've never seen anything like this before.
00:44:45No, me neither.
00:44:48Maybe it's a trap.
00:44:55It's gotta be.
00:45:48We had become so burned by the wind and sun.
00:46:13It was hard to tell Cotton and me from the Indians.
00:46:17The weeks of hard travel had left us bone-weary.
00:46:22Now I was frightened and worried
00:46:24that Uncle Will or some of the men might be injured or killed
00:46:27because it had been several days since Winterhawk had sent his Braves to stop them.
00:46:33Suddenly,
00:46:34there was one of the Braves coming downriver.
00:46:47I have lost two brothers.
00:47:11Guthrie?
00:47:12He has lost one.
00:47:17Now they are in the back.
00:47:18Somebody, please.
00:47:19Yes.
00:47:20I'll have it.
00:47:20Here.
00:47:21Perfect.
00:47:22Come on.
00:48:16There is no way to describe how I felt
00:48:45when I watched him cut little Cotton's hands free.
00:49:03But time kept passing
00:49:05and now it was November
00:49:08and the moon of the freezing rivers
00:49:11and we kept moving deeper into the wilderness of Canada.
00:49:16Great flights of geese often darkened the sky as they flew southward
00:49:21and the chill winds that moaned through the trees at sunset
00:49:25warned us of the cold winter coming.
00:49:28I was determined to try once more to persuade Winterhawk to let us go.
00:49:33I want to talk with him.
00:49:38If he will let my brother and me go,
00:49:42he will be rewarded.
00:49:44If Winterhawk does not free us,
00:49:48more white men will follow him.
00:49:52He must understand.
00:49:54There are many more white men than Blackfeet.
00:49:59As chief, he must not allow two white men's mistakes
00:50:03to bring such suffering to his people.
00:50:05It comes so way,
00:50:07but okay not.
00:50:09Okay him.
00:50:11Now pick the wax.
00:50:12Winterhawk must be greater than his enemies.
00:50:15He must forgive them.
00:50:19Send us home.
00:50:43No.
00:50:45No neste
00:50:47acis tutu
00:50:49canale.
00:50:50You.
00:51:11He says you speak well for a white woman,
00:51:14but he does not believe in your words.
00:51:18As the white man
00:51:19...has strangled the Indian with words.
00:51:33Well, I'll tell you, there ain't nothing equal to a full stomach.
00:51:39Wouldn't you say so, Finley?
00:51:41Nothing's happening out there.
00:51:43Good.
00:51:45Finley, you'll enjoy this while you can.
00:51:49You trying to tell me something?
00:51:51Which way we heading?
00:51:57North.
00:51:59Well, I'll be. Now, that's a good guess.
00:52:03Hey, we're heading north. We're following Winterhawk.
00:52:06And his people are migrating south after their food supply.
00:52:11He's coming on the end of fall. It'll soon be winter.
00:52:15That means less food and a hell of a lot of snow and cold.
00:52:25Could be spring before we overtake Winterhawk.
00:52:28Hey, now, there's another good guess.
00:52:31Unless Winterhawk decides to turn around and overtake us.
00:52:37We already lost two braves. Maybe even a third.
00:52:42So from now on, anything that moves...
00:52:46...is more than likely a Blackfeet.
00:52:50Let's get some shut-eye.
00:52:55All else, man...
00:52:57...would you mind sleeping down with me?
00:53:00Why?
00:53:02Well, because I have smelled this damn thing you've got around your neck...
00:53:07...about all I intend to smell it. That's why.
00:53:10Well, Mr. Guthrie, you might do well by yourself if you was to wear one.
00:53:17This here's my life bag.
00:53:20And it's kept me alive in these mountains all these years.
00:53:24Well, it's mad.
00:53:26Would you mind telling us just what in the world you've got in that thing?
00:53:32Well...
00:53:34I couldn't do that.
00:53:37Because, you see, it's kind of personal.
00:53:40All you're gonna know is I ain't gonna take it off.
00:53:44And I'm gonna keep right on living and surviving in these here mountains.
00:53:49Well, you sleep downwind so we can survive the night.
00:54:01Whoo!
00:54:11Hi.
00:54:13Hey.
00:54:15You see what I see?
00:54:24There is a man what calls himself Dick.
00:54:32Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
00:54:36Whoo!
00:54:43Hi.
00:54:45What you doing?
00:54:47I just finished my bath, and I'm gonna dry off...
00:54:51...and go finish my breakfast and take a nap.
00:54:54You know something, little Smith?
00:54:58You just flat-out stink.
00:55:06Surely you ain't talking about me. I just finished my bath.
00:55:10Now!
00:55:16You see?
00:55:27Whoo!
00:55:29I haven't seen you in 30 years.
00:55:32Well, I'm gonna see you now!
00:55:58Oh.
00:56:00Oh. Easy. Easy.
00:56:11Whoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!
00:56:27Whoo!
00:56:58Ruth!
00:57:02Timber!
00:57:04Ruth!
00:57:14Goodbye, Brute!
00:57:16Take me back!
00:57:27Aah!
00:57:57Mr. Findlay, uh...
00:58:00...you wanna say something?
00:58:03No.
00:58:05No.
00:58:07No.
00:58:09No.
00:58:11No.
00:58:13No.
00:58:15No.
00:58:17No.
00:58:19No.
00:58:21No.
00:58:23No.
00:58:26I don't know what to say.
00:58:32Your springs shall be less green.
00:58:35Your winters more severe.
00:58:40Your enemies shall grow stronger.
00:58:44For lo, a great spring has gone out.
00:58:56He was a...
00:58:58...Elva Mount Manson.
00:59:25¶¶
00:59:56¶¶
01:00:17¶¶
01:00:25and wrapped in a cloak of mystery as he retreated into his thoughts.
01:00:31He watched, fascinated, but a little fearful of what action would follow his meditations.
01:00:41The persistence of Elkhorn Guthrie, who we now knew led Uncle Will and the mountain men,
01:00:47was obviously giving him grave concern.
01:00:51He seemed to be staring across the mists of time,
01:00:56listening to whispered voices riding on the long winds
01:01:01that stirred the thousands of miles of grassland with the changing seasons.

01:03:31Howdy.
01:03:43Been after that boy all summer to fix that.
01:03:46Yeah.
01:03:49Fine quality.
01:03:51The best.
01:03:53Where'd you get him?
01:03:55I didn't.
01:03:57He did.
01:03:59Where'd you get him?
01:04:02He can't talk.
01:04:04He's a deaf-mute.
01:04:10I don't suppose he can write, either.
01:04:14No.
01:04:19They all say I pay top dollar in this country.
01:04:23That's why we're here.
01:04:25Passes still open up north?
01:04:28Bridges had some snow.
01:04:30Johnson's still clear.
01:04:33Crossing into Canada?
01:04:36Oh, I don't know.
01:04:39I'm with him, and he ain't told me yet.
01:04:44Let's do business.
01:05:03We ain't heading north.
01:05:05That's right.
01:05:07We're going to McCluskey's.
01:05:09Come on, Mr. Friendly.
01:05:12Come on, Mr. Friendly.
01:05:18Got my glove box.
01:05:31McCluskey, it's been a long time.
01:05:35I've been expecting you all day.
01:05:38How's that?
01:05:40When I buy a bunch of furs with your wife's mark on it,
01:05:43I reckon you're not far behind.
01:05:47My wife's mark?
01:05:49What the heck are you talking about?
01:05:56Two white men.
01:05:58Come in early this morning.
01:06:00Not only had them furs,
01:06:02but they was packing a pinto.
01:06:05And I swear it looked like a twin of paleflowers.
01:06:11One of them was short.
01:06:14One of them was kind of tall.
01:06:16One of them didn't have much to say.
01:06:19Guthrie, one of them was meaner than hell.
01:06:24Which way?
01:06:27I told them Johnson's pass is clear.
01:06:30I watched them pull out for you, Guthrie.
01:06:33That's where they was heading.
01:06:41Where's he at?
01:06:43Johnson's pass.
01:06:45Johnson? We just got here.
01:06:48McCluskey, my name's Will Findley.
01:06:51I'm looking for a band of Blackfeet
01:06:54led by one they call Winterhawk.
01:06:56They took my niece and my nephew.
01:06:59Have you seen or heard of them in these parts?
01:07:02I've heard of them, but I ain't seen them.
01:07:06Very few white men have.
01:07:09Very few white men have.
01:07:39What are you trying to do, Guthrie?
01:08:07Kill us and the horses?
01:08:09I'll start a fire.
01:08:11No fires.
01:08:12It's freezing.
01:08:13Fires can be seen.
01:08:15You wait here.
01:08:20Try to put it in the cup and not on me this time.
01:08:25You reckon we got a good price on those hides?
01:08:28Yeah.
01:08:29I just think we got enough for that panto.
01:08:33Yeah.
01:08:36Easy.
01:08:45Elkhorn Guthrie?
01:08:47That's right.
01:08:50I seen your fire.
01:08:53I thought I might join you.
01:08:55I could sure use a cup of that coffee.
01:09:01You must be part Indian sneaking in on us like that.
01:09:09Thank you.
01:09:11Who's your friend?
01:09:17Scoby.
01:09:19Scoby Glass.
01:09:28Got separated from my party.
01:09:31I've been tracking a couple of thieves.
01:09:39You two, you're pretty far north.
01:09:42What you doing?
01:09:49Just kind of minding their business.
01:09:54Meaning I ain't?
01:09:56Oh, no.
01:09:58I don't mean anything.
01:10:04Unless your business is my business.
01:10:12God, please, please!
01:10:26He did it!
01:10:27He did it!
01:10:28I swear to God!
01:10:29I swear to God, he did it!
01:10:31Did what?
01:10:33I don't know what he did.
01:10:34I didn't see him.
01:10:35I didn't touch her.
01:10:36I didn't even look at her.
01:10:37I swear on my mother's grave!
01:10:41You never had a mother.
01:10:45Pick him up.
01:10:49I said pick him up!
01:10:53What are you going to do with me?
01:10:56I don't know.
01:10:58It'll be something special.
01:11:01That country's crazy!
01:11:03We're getting so far back in these mountains,
01:11:05if we don't starve to death, we'll freeze!
01:11:09I don't even have a fat squaw to keep me warm.
01:11:14Well, even those Indians are better than us.
01:11:17I hear they got a good-looking woman with them.
01:11:21Don't you talk about my niece that way, you scoundrel!
01:11:25Let me take care of this for you, Mr. Finley.
01:11:30Oh, God!
01:11:33He smarts off at you one more time,
01:11:36and you'll be preaching his funeral.
01:11:58Please!
01:12:01Help him!
01:12:06Help him!
01:12:29Is my pony going to be all right?
01:12:31Your pony will be fine.
01:12:35Make pain go away.
01:12:38Your pony's strong.
01:12:46Winterhawk?
01:12:49You got a wife?
01:12:53Winterhawk.
01:12:55Have no woman.
01:12:57Died many seasons ago.
01:13:23Victim.
01:13:25Not victim.
01:13:27A toxin.
01:13:30Winterhawk,
01:13:32say, tell you, with hair like snow,
01:13:36he once had son
01:13:38who was fast like the wind
01:13:40and curious like you.
01:13:43He, like his mother,
01:13:45died of white man's disease.
01:13:52Winterhawk?
01:13:55I'm sorry.
01:14:17Well, I'm glad you're back.
01:14:19Just in time for evening prayers.
01:14:37Dear Lord,
01:14:39we thank thee for thy bounties
01:14:42and for seeing us through another day without harm.
01:14:47We ask thee to be merciful for those...
01:14:50Sis, he ain't married.
01:14:53Cotton Finley,
01:14:55now you be quiet and finish your prayers.
01:15:02Dear Lord,
01:15:04we ask you to watch over us,
01:15:07to deliver us from evil
01:15:10and to return us safely home.
01:15:13Amen.
01:15:16Now, come on.
01:15:19Go to sleep.
01:15:35How did you know?
01:15:37Hmm?
01:15:39How did you know he wasn't married?
01:15:46I told you he was my friend.
01:15:49So I asked him for you.
01:15:52Young man, from now on, I'll do my own asking.
01:15:56Good night.
01:16:16Good night.
01:16:46Good night.
01:17:11This was a bitter and endless cold.
01:17:16Icy winds cut like a knife
01:17:20and the creeping numbness of our bodies
01:17:23made going on almost unbearable.
01:17:27For the life of me,
01:17:29I don't see how little cotton kept going.
01:17:33We were lost in a white world
01:17:36and I watched horses struggle through the deep snow,
01:17:40gasping for breath in the thin air.
01:17:43The fire hovered over us like a dark vulture
01:17:47and I wondered, when, when will it all end?
01:18:14What do you suppose happened to Big Ruth?
01:18:17Been away a long time now.
01:18:19Never knowed him to get lost before.
01:18:21Oh, he knows the country. He'll be along.
01:18:24What I'd like to know is why you're doing this.
01:18:27Well, Gates is my friend.
01:18:29Well, I got a right to know.
01:18:31You got no rights at all.
01:18:34Well, you could give him a decent burial.
01:18:36I'll give him nothing.
01:18:39Better keep moving, Guthrie.
01:19:10You look tired, my son.
01:19:16Guthrie follows.
01:19:19Guthrie?
01:19:22But I don't understand. He is your brother.
01:19:28The white man, not trade.
01:19:32Take him.
01:19:35The white man, not trade.
01:19:39Take furs.
01:19:41We have no medicine.
01:19:46Now Guthrie leads them against us.
01:19:53Guthrie, he follows because of woman and boy.
01:19:58The people are dying.
01:20:01They have white man sickness.
01:20:04Feed your strength, my son.
01:20:08Do not bring more trouble.
01:20:13I not give back boy and woman.
01:20:19Well, what you do with them?
01:20:22Trade for medicine.
01:20:27Now they are my strength.
01:20:31This will not save face.
01:20:33It will only lead to more killing.
01:20:38It is not my wish.
01:20:44You have said many times,
01:20:48it is better for man to die in battle
01:20:52than die of old age or sickness.
01:20:57When I was young like you, my son,
01:21:00I said many things.
01:21:03Now that I am old,
01:21:06I have many scars to show for my quick words.
01:21:10Rest, my son. We will talk later.
01:21:41Keep quiet, old man.
01:21:43Cut your throat.
01:21:45Now I got something to trade.
01:21:48Come on, old man. Come on.
01:21:52Keep walking. Come on.
01:21:55Straighten up.
01:21:57Come on, old man.
01:21:59Come on.
01:22:01Keep walking.
01:22:03Come on.
01:22:05Straighten up.
01:22:07Straighten up.
01:22:25Winterhall!
01:22:27I got something you want.
01:22:30You got something that I want.
01:22:37Come on.
01:22:43Stand up, old man!
01:22:45Stand up!
01:22:49Old man!
01:22:51Stand up!
01:23:07Stand up!
01:23:37Stand up!
01:24:08Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof.
01:24:15God! They're burning him alive!
01:24:29Guthrie, that Indian wants us to turn back.
01:24:32We better do it, Guthrie, before they burn him anymore.
01:24:38You get Little Smith's long rifle and you try a shot at him...

01:33:17Bye, Winnie the Pooh.
01:33:26You want him?
01:33:33My warriors will not honor him with death.
01:33:39I don't want him neither.
01:33:41Colby, hand me the reins of that pack horse.
01:33:45Come on.
01:33:46All right, now you throw him off of there.
01:33:48Get him off.
01:33:56Give me your coat.
01:33:58What?
01:33:59I said, give me your coat.
01:34:02Come on.
01:34:32Come on.
01:34:39Sis!

01:35:02Where'd you go?
01:35:05Winterhawk!
01:35:07Come back, we'll talk!
01:35:12I'll get you white vans, guns, brains!
01:35:18I'll get you whiskey!
01:35:22Country!
01:35:24You can't leave me out here just to die!
01:35:29Winterhawk!
01:35:31Come back, we'll talk!
01:36:01Winterhawk!
01:36:32Winterhawk!
01:36:47Suddenly I realized what I had to do.
01:36:52That it was my life,
01:36:54and only I could choose the path I would travel.
01:36:58I knew Garton would be all right.
01:37:01I was not to see my brother again for many years,
01:37:05till he was grown with a family of his own.
01:37:09I and Winterhawk melted into the forest and the mountains,
01:37:13and the howl of the coyote echoing in the moonlit canyons
01:37:17became our music,
01:37:19and the wail of the wind
01:37:21and the cry of the Winterhawk
01:37:23our song.
01:37:25Winterhawk, so the oldies say,
01:37:36born of thunder winds where gods play,
01:37:44and the sacred stones spirits speak
01:37:51of the passing songs while earth weeps.
01:38:00Winterhawk, hear your people cry,
01:38:07bitter tears will fall, great men die,
01:38:15but the boy is brotherly.
01:38:22He'll stop bleeding then, once again,
01:38:30he's to call him home, not to seek him home.
01:38:47Winterhawk, taste the wildest dream,
01:38:54watch the pathless woods lost in dream,
01:39:02and the bird of prey soars in flight.
01:39:11Cross the mists of time, hail star of light.
