Christopher_Guest (Waiting for Guffman) directed this comedy about two hapless explorers -- hard-drinking trapper Bartholomew Hunt (the late Chris_Farley in his last major role) and foppish Leslie Edwards (Matthew_Perry) -- who lead an ill-fated 1804 expedition through the Pacific Northwest in a hopeless, doomed effort to reach the Pacific Ocean before Lewis and Clark. Others joining their trek are French linguist Guy Fontenot (Eugene_Levy), who is unable to decipher dialects of any Native American tribes; Spanish conquistador Hidalgo (Kevin_Dunn), who seeks the Fountain of Youth; Fontenot's Indian mistress Shaquinna (Lisa_Barbuscia); Bidwell (David_Packer), who keeps losing parts of his body; oddball Pratt (Hamilton_Camp); and Edwards' manservant Jonah (Bokeem_Woodbine). Filmed on location in Northern California and the Big Bear region. Bhob Stewart, Rovi
