It does have its moments (including an Indian drinking beer to get sober), but there's way, way too much walking in this film.

Spencer Tracy and his rangers on a grueling adventure trying to find the Northwest Passage (1940). A grand MGM production that in a way is low key at the same time. Shot mostly outside in Technicolor, the film feels like it's from a different era then it's really from. Got a couple of big scenes, like the river-chain and the massive massacre, but besides that it's mostly about human courage and sacrifice with a lot of focus on Tracy's leadership skills as Major Rogers. A lot to appreciate.

Sprawling, impressive epic. Great performance from Tracy, and excellent supporting work from Brennan and Young.
