About this product

Product Information

DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK is John Ford's first film in Technicolor (which recently perfected far richer shadings of color than had previously been possible), and the director uses it to stunning effect. The film stars Henry Fonda as Revolutionary War-era farmer Gilbert Martin, who, in 1776, has returned with his well-born wife, Lana (Claudette Colbert), to his rustic cabin in the increasingly dangerous Mohawk River valley. At first unaccustomed to the harsh physical challenges of frontier life, Lana adjusts to the work at hand and is soon able to help her husband in the fields. Shortly after they learn that the colonies are at war with the British, their farmhouse is attacked and burned to the ground by a party of Tory-led Indians. The feisty Widow McKlennar (Edna May Oliver) provides temporary shelter for the couple, but it's only a matter of time before the Indians launch a more brutal assault. Save for THE QUIET MAN, DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK contains the richest passages of pastoral imagery in Ford's entire canon, the visual beauty nearly upstaging the spectacular and terrifying Indian battles. The performances, particularly Oliver (who garnered an Oscar nomination) as the vinegary widow and the superbly stoic Fonda, enable Ford to again demonstrate the heroism and limitations of rugged individualism. The scenes of an Indian prisoner spread-eagled on a wagon and Gilbert's escape are repeated almost exactly in the 1982 dystopian classic THE ROAD WARRIOR.

Almost made it to 5 outta 5
It is a strange truism about films concerning American History. While some of those films dealing with the Civil War are great (THE GENERAL, GONE WITH THE WIND) or highly respectable (THE RAID, GETTYSBURG, GLORY), this is less true about films about the American Revolution. It's a sad or mediocre commentary. D.W.Griffith's first great feature length film was the controversial - pro K.K.K film: THE BIRTH OF A NATION. No matter how you hate the film's racism, it's innovation make it a film landmark. But his attempt at a Revolution film, America, was a flop. Just see the titles: America, THE HOWARDS OF VIRGINIA, THE DEVIL'S DESCIPLE (slightly better due to its star cast, especially Olivier as "Gentleman Johnny" Burgoyne), JOHN PAUL JONES, LAFAYETTE, REVOLUTION.

No matter how you hate the film's racism, it's innovation make it a film landmark. But his attempt at a Revolution film, America, was a flop. Just see the titles: America, THE HOWARDS OF VIRGINIA, THE DEVIL'S DESCIPLE (slightly better due to its star cast, especially Olivier as "Gentleman Johnny" Burgoyne), JOHN PAUL JONES, LAFAYETTE, REVOLUTION. There are two exceptions. The musical 1776 was a good film, and (despite some historical errors) told the story of the creation of the Declaration of Independence pretty well. This film is the other. It is the only film by John Ford set in the American Revolution (he was more at home in the Indian Wars of the 1870s). It is in glorious color for a 1939 film. It has a dandy cast from Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert as the young married couple, to Edna Mae Oliver, Ward Bond, Arthur Shields, and John Carridine (except that his motivation as a Tory is never developed - possibly his scenes were cut in the editing). Perhaps it was the source. Walter D. Edmonds is a forgotten writer today, but when I was growing up in the 1960s his novels, DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK and CHAD HANNA, were still published and read. Interestingly Henry Fonda was also in the film version of that film. Edwards was a regional historical writer (which may explain his contemporary oblivion). All his novels are set in upstate New York, CHAD HANNA being set in the 1830s. DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK deals with the warfare between settlers in Western New York and the Six Nations of the Iroquois Indians, the latter allied with Tories. It is a grueling warfare - culminating in the battle of Oriskany, where American troops literally slugged it out in forest fighting with the Indians. Commanded by General Nicholas Herkimer (Ralph Imhof in the film)the Americans barely won the battle. Herkimer died of his wounds a few days later (movingly captured in the movie). He is honored today by a county upstate named for him. These events occurred in 1777, and the film seems to end in 1779. It ends with the settlers of the Mohawk River Valley triumphing over the Tories and Indians. What is not shown is what really crushed the Indians - Washington sent General John Sullivan into the area, and in a foreshadowing of the scorched earth policies of General William Tecumseh Sherman, Sullivan burned the Iroquois villages to the ground. It is not a pretty story now, but in that period Sullivan was considered a national hero. Ford does not even touch on that aspect. Probably just as well. But what he does show is first rate Ford, and we are all grateful for that.

100% Sheer Entertainment!!
One of the few good, family oriented movies about the Revolutionary War and in particular the Frontier campaigns. A very young Henry Fonda and John Carradine for those of us who remember these bigger-than-life stars. Was never a much of a fan of Claudette Colbert but she shines in this movie. Quality of restoration is quite good but you can tell where the camera switches from daylight to artificial lighting. Sort of a very minor "3-d" color shift. Particulary noticeable on larger screen HD TV's. Used to watch these old movies on snowy evenings and frigid weekends in Michigan when I was 10 or so and this is a special treat for all classic movie buffs! You can't go wrong with this movie. Not 100% historically correct but ABSOLUTELY 100% entertaining, first viewing, second viewing, and ...

Drums Along the Mohawk
The main selling point of Drums Along the Mohawk for me at least, is the director, John Ford. He's the reason I bought it and the big reason for watching it more than once. Drums Along the Mohawk is the third in a string of wonderful films Ford directed from 1939 unril the beginning of the war. It's his first film in color and for a director with such a great visual sense that alone is a reason for viewing it more than once. Another big reason is that Drums Along the Mohawk is an exciting movie and a great entertainment. Finally, unlike a previous reviewer, I don't believe that the lack of Oscar victories means much so far as the quality of a film. There's many Oscar winners that are forgotten today while overlooked pictures from the same year are loved and enjoyed and will be ...

Reason enough to plunk down a couple of dollars for something as well done as Drums Along the Mohawk.

Drums Along the Mohawk
Wonderful novel. Well written with well-drawn characters and an excellent feel for the period. Every American should read this novel to experience what it was like during the American Revolution era. Highly recommended.
