A somewhat interesting document of Lewis and Clark's journey out west. Egged on by Thomas Jefferson, the 2 discovered and mapped out the west, helping to shape the United States. Good acting by the two leads, but will turn people off by the very odd stereotyping of indians and blacks (yeah yeah, you say, but indians were treated as such during that time. Well, then, were blacks acting like that too?) Other then that point, quite historical for people who just thought Lewis And Clark was a TV show about Superman in the 1990's.
