At the movies 'Man in the 1 best recent Ri "Man in the Wilderness" is now playing at the Richland Mall Theatre and it stars one of the foremost "roaring boys" of the cinema community, Richard Harris. The rambunctious Irishman plays the part of Zack Bass, a hunter and scout who is left for dead by his comrades after being mauled by a bear. The story is one of revenge and guilt set against the wilderness of t he Dakotas during the 1820's. And it is a true story. The story begins with a group of trappers pulling a big boat on wheels across the plains. They have been trapping beaver, whose pelts are furry gold in the East. The trappers are racing against winter and hostile Indians. While hunting with a novice one day, Zack has to go into the bush to track a deer that the boy has wounded. While tracking the deer, Zack is attacked by a bear. He 3shoots it but the bullet has no ef ru Sat Vilderness' chard Harris --nby Bob Craft fect. The bear mauls him, dragging him around by the leg. Zack gets away the tries to climb a tree, but the bear is too strong and Zack has been hurt too badly. The bear pulls him down from the tree and continues chewing on him. The boy sees what is happening and instead of shooting the bear, he panics and runs back to the camp and brings the rest of the men. The men kill the bear and at first they believe Zack is dead, but he con tinues to breathe. "Man in the Wilderness" is not a great film, but it is the best that Richard Harris has made in a long time. After the super-duper hollywood musical "Camelot" and the historical extravaganza, "Cromwell," Harris really gets a chance to act in this one. There is very little dialogue and a lot of it is in an Indian language. Remind you of "A Man Called Horse"? Well maybe. John Huston who has shown up in a lot of terrible pictures lately, "Myra Breckinridge" and "De Sade", for example gives an adequate performance as tne Captain. Oh, and for you "Star Trek" freaks, James Doohan (Mr. Scott) has a featured role as Benoit, one of the trappers. "Man In the Wilderness" will be on for a few more days before "Lady and the Tramp" makes the rounds again, so if you have some time between exam studying and aren't doing anything else, go see "Man In the Wilderness."
