Movie: North West Mounted Police (1940)
Film Synopsis:
Texas Ranger Dusty Rivers ("Isnt that a contradiction in terms?", another character asks him) travels to Canada in the 1880s in search of Jacques Corbeau, who is wanted for murder. He wandered into the midst of the Riel rebellion, where the Metis (people of French and indigenous heritage) and the native population wanted a separate state. Dusty Falls for Nurse April Logan, who was also loved by Mountie Jim Brett. Aprils brother becomes involved with Courbeaus daughter Louvette, which leads to trouble during a battle between the rebels and the Mounties. Through it all Dusty is determined to get Corbeau back to Texas (and April too, if he can manage it.) Uploaded by: Freeman September 18, 2020 at 12:42
