Good adventure film
This is a very good adventure film set in the frozen wasteland. Plenty of snow, beautiful husky dogs and good fun. Rick Hudson handles his role as a true hero. This isn't exactly a western. More like an adventure film in gold rush territory. Good movie of the 1950's.
Universal Vault Series edition
Short and unremarkable but enjoyable action film set in the frozen wastelands of North America, mixing some good on-location footage with studio sets. The film elements on this DVD have not been restored however they are in excellent shape with only the occasional white speck and blemish in evidence. The picture is sharp and clear, contrast is well balanced and colour rich and strong. Sound is clear although recorded at rather a low volume. You'll need to crank up your speakers a bit. There are no special features, subtitles or menu - the movie starts as soon as the disc is loaded. Picture ratio is 1.33:1 (black bars at sides) and English language the only soundtrack. The disc is encoded for Region 1 only. Picture quality 8.5/10, Sound 8/10, Movie 7/10.
