About this movie

John Wayne and Randolph Scott duke it out for Marlene Dietrich's love in this riotous Western set in an Alaskan boomtown. When ship captain Roy Glennister (John Wayne) finds out he's been duped out of a mine claim by the smooth-talking Alexander McNamara (Randolph Scott), he turns to a sassy saloon singer named Cherry Malotte (Marlene Dietrich) for help in stopping the land-grabbing thug. But revenge soon turns to romance as Cherry and Roy discover sparks in the cold frontier boomtown. When McNamara makes a pass of his own, it's all out war as the quips -- and furniture -- go flying in this hilarious and hard-hitting adventure.

I thought it was a classic movie with great acting. Dietrich, Wayne and Scott made the movie enjoyable. Dietrich dresses made her look attractive added a lot to the movie.
