Drylanders is a 1962 Canadian Western film directed by Don Haldane and Written by M. Charles Cohen and starring Frances Hyland and James B. Douglas.

[3][4] Set in 1900s Western Canada, Daniel Greer (James Douglas) returns home after the Boer War to find city life not to his liking.

Stage actors with limited television work were hired and smaller roles were played by locals.

Fields of Sacrifice served as part of a double feature due to Drylanders short runtime.

[7][5] It played theatrically throughout 1963 and 1964 before making its way to the non-theatrical circuit, where it was shown in schools and community centres on 16 mm.
