West of the Rockies (1931)
This picture was filmed as a tribute to the Mormon faith, with money invested by citizens of Utah, on the very ground where those religious folks lirst settled. The principal actors, including Marie Prevost and Ben Lyon, were brought from Hollywood. The extras were Utahans, many of them Mormons. The result is a thriller with an amazing buffalo stampede, fascinating shots of the covered wagons crossing the river and good sincere work by Marie Prevost.
