Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe battle between the Shoshone and the U.S. cavalry troops riding into an ambush in the Medicine Rock boxed canyon uses footage recycled from the film 'Davy Crockett, Indian Scout' (1950). In that film the same footage is used to depict a battle between Kiowa and U.S. cavalry troops attempting to cross the mountains through the Manitou Pass.
- GoofsAlthough the story takes place in California in the 1840s, and an effort was made to have American and Mexican soldiers wear the appropriate uniforms of the time, the civilians are wearing the familiar Stetson-type cowboy hats, vests, boots and other clothing that can be seen in any western set in the 1880s-1890s Southwest, which weren't worn in the California of the 1840s.
Featured review
Remake of Kit Carson (1940)
I am watching Frontier Uprising now on The Westerns Channel. It's a complete remake of the 1940 Kit Carson, starring Jon Hall. Footage from the earlier film is included in this programmer. Jim Davis stars as scout and trapper Jim Stockton, guiding a wagon train of settlers and soldiers to California. Nancy Hadley plays love interest Consuela, a Spanish California girl who only seems to know one Spanish word, "Aqui." Bit and character actor Ken Mayer is Stockton's sidekick, Beaver. Watching Frontier Uprising is a good way to spend a rainy Saturday morning, but it will be forgotten soon afterward.
