Description
Across the Wide Missouri is a 1951 American film based on historian Bernard DeVoto's book, Across the Wide Missouri. The film dramatizes an account of several fur traders and their interaction with the Native Americans.
The film was directed by William A. Wellman and starred Clark Gable as cunning trapper Flint Mitchell, Ricardo Montalb�n as Blackfoot Iron Shirt, John Hodiak as Brecan, Mar�a Elena Marqu�s as Kamiah, a Blackfoot chief's daughter Mitchell marries and later falls in love with, J. Carrol Naish as Nez Perce Looking Glass, and Adolphe Menjou as Pierre. Howard Keel, as Mitchell's son, "Chip Mitchell" narrates.
During filming, Ricardo Montalb�n was reportedly thrown off a horse, knocked out, and walked on by another horse, leaving him with a spinal injury. This injury recurred in 1993, which forced him into a wheelchair.
The film was shot entirely on location in the Rocky Mountains, mostly at altitudes between 9,000 and 14,000 feet, and Durango, Colorado, was the main location site.
