DVD Reviews of North of the Great Divide
DVD Review: "Roy Rogers B-Western Series ... North of the Great Divide (1950) ... Republic Pictures "
Summary: 5 Stars
Republic Pictures presents "NORTH OF THE GREAT DIVIDE" (15 November 1950) (64 mins/B&W/Color) (Fully Restored/Dolby Digitally Remastered) --- Roy Rogers (born Leonard Slye) moved to California in 1930, at the age of 18 --- played in such musical groups as The Hollywood Hillbillies, Rocky Mountaineers, Texas Outlaws and his own group, the International Cowboys --- In 1934 he formed a group with Bob Nolan and Tim Spencer called "Sons of the Pioneers" --- While in that group he was known as Leonard Slye, then Dick Weston and finally Roy Rogers --- Their songs included "Cool Water" and "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" --- They first appeared in the western "Rhythm on the Range" (1936), starring Bing Crosby --- In 1937 Roy went solo and made his first starring film in 1938, "Under Western Stars" (1938) --- He made almost 100 films --- then came television, "The Roy Rogers Show" (1951) ran on CBS from October 1951 through September 1964.
Under William Witney (Director), Edward J. White (Producer), Eric Taylor (Screenwriter), Jack A. Marta (Cinematographer), R. Dale Butts (Composer (Music Score), Jack Elliott (Composer (Music Score), Tony Martinelli (Editor), Frank Hotaling (Production Designer), John McCarthy (Set Designer), George Milo (Set Designer), Adele Palmer (Costume Designer), Howard Lydecker (Special Effects), Theodore Lydecker (Special Effects) - - - - Our story line and plot, Roy engages in another conservation story --- As a blood brother of an Oseka tribe and an official in the federal Indian Service, Roy attempts to halt trouble between the Native Americans and the owner of a Canadian salmon cannery who is blocking the movement of the fish upstream to the Indians' river camp --- Directed by Republic action specialist William Witney. It has a fairly strong social issue and pro-Indian themes --- Two great western heavies, Roy Barcroft as Banning and Jack Lambert as his whip-wielding henchman, Skagg, make suitably nasty villains --- Famed Indian actor Iron Eyes Cody is on hand to give his blessings to the proceedings --- Must recommend the Happy Trails DVD's to you --- Each one has new information about Roy Rogers and Dale Evans and each actor or director in the film --- If you are a Roy Rogers and Dale Evans fan like me you will totally enjoy all the extra footage showing Roy and Dale going to parades and visiting children in hospitals, the story of Roy proposing marriage to Dale, and more inside info also about the family --- Each film starts out with Roy and Dale seated on a small stage back around 1987 talking about the sagebrush films they are showing --- some wonderful tunes, JUST KEEP A MOVIN' - NORTH OF THE GREAT DIVIDE -- BY THE LAUGHING SPRING.
