Storyline
The Wild North Jules Vincent, a happy-go-lucky, outgoing French Canadian trapper in the wild Northwest, befriends a beautiful Native American girl, and although he makes an enemy of bully Max Brody, he agrees to travel with him. When Brody tries to kill them, Vincent kills him in self-defense. He is pursued by a by-the-book, idealistic Constable Pedley, who believes in the Mounties’ credo “we always get our man.” The country is rugged and fraught with dangers like white water rapids, avalanches, wolf packs and desperadoes. After capturing Vincent, the inexperienced Mountie finds he is in no shape to get back to civilization without Vincent’s help. Pedley is torn between fulfilling his duty and freeing the man who has saved his life.
User Reviews
The Wild North Stewart Granger is a woods wise French Canadian trapper who’s killed a man and Wendell Corey is the rookie Mountie sent to bring him back for trial.
Problem is that this is Granger’s ballpark they’re playing in and it’s one long journey back to some semblance of civilization. But strange as it may seem, Corey proves his mettle and a strange respect grows between both men.
Granger and Corey have good chemistry between them, they’d have to or the film would be unwatchable. MGM put in some good action sequences involving wolves attacking their camp and a breathtaking whitewater canoeing challenge.
The Wild North also features good location photography in some rugged regions of Idaho serving as the Canadian northwest. Oh, and there’s Cyd Charisse who dances not a step as a beautiful Indian woman with a thing for Granger. Reason enough right there to watch the Wild North.
An unforgettable Canadian setting
