It was done a while ago, and rather well too, in a film called MAN IN THE WILDERNESS. Not exactly as it was historically---but mostly it was done well. John Huston was old Andrew Henry---strangely hauling a full-rigged boat through the Rocky Mountains !!?? I do not think that ever happened unless I just never came upon that tale. I don't think Bridger was named in the film either. And I don't think the trapper's name in the film was Hugh Glass---but it's been a long while since I saw it. But the sad adventure that Glass had with the bear--and his recovery--was depicted well I thought.
