North of the Border (film)
North of the Border is a 1946 American Western film.
The movie was directed by B. Reeves Eason and based on a story by James Oliver Curwood. Many of the same cast and crew also worked on 'Neath Canadian Skies.[1]
Although the film credits James Curwood, TCM states that "the film does not appear to have been based on one of his stories."[2]
