Along... A silent forerunner of western epics, this film follows two wagon caravans as they depart from the newly crowned Kansas City and begin their journey westward, determined to settle in Oregon. Along the way, the pioneers must combat Indians and the elements (first desert heat, then mountain snow). Adding even more drama is a love triangle that develops between a pretty woman and two male travellers. History may have lessened the emotional impact of the film, but beautiful photography makes it a visual treat. [More]
