Product Description:
Two wyoming cattlemen drive a herd to gold-rush alaska and find trouble. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 02/27/2007 Starring: James Stewart Harry Morgan Run time: 97 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Anthony Mann
Amazon.com essential video:
The far country of the title is Alaska, where James Stewart, a cold-hearted cattleman, and his sidekick Walter Brennan, a garrulous old codger, drive a herd of cattle to cash in on the gold rush. Stewart is the ultimate loner, a point the film takes pains to paint as he watches helpless miners murdered by a gang of thugs without lifting a finger. John McIntyre plays his nemesis, a magnetic but corrupt Roy Bean-like judge and merchant who preys off the miners passing through his town and steals Stewart's cattle in the name of justice. Stewart, after signing on to lead saloon owner Ruth Roman's wagon train to the mining camp, steals back his herd and makes himself a respectful enemy: "I'm gonna like you. I'm gonna hang you, but I'm gonna like you," grins McIntyre. The rest of the film is a battle for Stewart's soul, between resolute individualism and community activism, between bad woman Roman and good girl Corinne Calvet (one of the film's weakest elements, admittedly, as the sparks between Stewart and Roman are far more exciting than Calvet's silly kewpie doll in flannel). The Far Country is largely shot on studio sets and pulls out familiar Western tropes not usually seen in his films, but Mann brings an edge to the drama with explosions of cold-blooded violence and a brilliant final shootout that plays out on a split-level plain. --Sean Axmaker

This is mostly a story about the growing relationship between cowboy Jeff Webster(Jimmy Stewart) and femme fatale Ronda Castle(Ruth Roman). She takes an instant liking to Jeff with just a brief encounter on the deck of the steamer to Skagway, and a longer look when he hides in her cabin while authorities look for him, charged with murder. They find out they have some important things in common, besides an animal attraction. Namely, neither dares to trust a member of the opposite sex, having ... Read More

ok, we all know these westerns have a message in them somewhere. often it is a message the supports some aspect of the american way of life. the message of this movie is that life isn't worth living unless you are part of something larger than yourself. jimmy stewart's character, jeff, finds this out the hard way. after a number of years as a loner, he finally realizes that he should he others protect their community and their dreams. but this only happens after a fair measure of abuse at the hands ...

Not sure of the link! I found the film to be an excellent addition to my Jimmy Steward Western Collection. Anytime Walter Brennan teams up with Jimmy Stewart, the film usually is a rather an excellent one!
