Too wild at times
12 July 2020
At the peak of the gold rush in Alaska in 1900, a gambling prospector meets an old friend recently released from prison who possesses a map showing a gold-rich plot. Meeting a widow on the way who is also seeking the gold, the trio set off in search.

First sound film based, loosely, on the famous novel by Jack London. Clark Gable and Jack Oakie are the prospectors who team up with Loretta Young. Gable is in good form and there is chemistry with Young, with an apparent involvement off screen. Some of the scenes involving animals are outdated.
