The Wild North (1952)


MGM
Directed by Andrew Marton
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)

Good outdoor adventure drama with Stewart Granger and Wendell Corey. The heart of the film is a long journey through rugged wilderness as Mountie Corey brings accused murderer Granger to justice. Along the way they battle the elements, wild dogs and each other. The faded Ansco color print I watched on TCM gives it an almost surreal beauty.
