Director : William Wellman Year Of Release : 1935 Principal Cast : Clark Gable, Loretta Young, Jack Oakie, Reginald Owen, Frank Conroy, Katherine DeMille, Sidney Toler, Charles Stevens. Approx Running Time : 90 Minutes Synopsis: After learning of an unclaimed gold find deep in Yukon territory, two men and a woman set about trying to find it, before a villainous British colonial gets there first. What we think : Pared back version of Jack London’s popular book focuses more on the humans than it does the central character – Buck, the enormous St Bernard – and is a nice catalog of Yukon-centric locales; while the story slips in and out of comedy and drama too often for my liking, the combo of Clark Gable (proving why he was a popular leading man of the day), Loretta Young (woot woot!) and Jack Oakie’s comedic stumblings add up to a terrific little time filler that offers some nice character moments.
