Atmospheric and colorful film about Mountain Men confronting Native Indians

Born among the dead...claimed by Paiute nation...his child became sacred !Acceptable Western drama with thrills , go riding , shootouts , Indian charges and spectacular landscapes . It deals with life of a pioneer , his hard way , fights , family and adding an agreeable relationship with another mountain man well played by Jack Elam. Our starring Tim McIntire becomes involved in problem and is forced to kidnap a Paiute woman who has just buried her own deceased infant . Stars Tim McIntire who gives a nice acting , he was son of the prestigious secondaries John McIntire and Jeanette Nolan , however, he had a brief but fruitful career due to his early death at 41 .

beautifully filmed

Story based in fact of a mountain man and his indian woman, who accidentally violate sacred burial mountain of the Piute's, the ensuing battle, and eventual truce after quite a few lost lives. A white man who CARES that he had encroached on these peoples sacred land, and would have liked to have just gotten off and gone away, but unfortunately doesn't get to. Very beautiful scenery shots of the Rocky mountains and some pretty nice music, make up for some of the acting. Along the lines of Grizzly Adams, Sellier does a good job on probably a rather tight budget. I enjoy rewatching this from time to time. Even if it is a bit of a dated piece.

Interesting and different ...................

This story of a mountain man, his Indian wife, and their accidental violation of sacred ground, is both interesting and different. The movie has a gritty, authentic feel to it throughout. This really is minimalist entertainment, almost entirely filmed outdoors in southern Oregon. A couple of annoying glitches crop up, include disappearing and reappearing snow, and Indians who speak their native tongue or English at various times, without any rhyme or reason. Nevertheless, "Sacred Ground" is filled with authentic feeling characters, the standout being Jack Elam. Recommended for those seeking a story that you haven't seen before. - MERK
