North of the Great Divide is a 1950 American western film directed by William Witney and starring Roy Rogers, Penny Edwards and Gordon Jones.
Roy Rogers, the singing hero, is one of their most important friends, he joins the bureau of Indian affairs so as to defend their way of life more easily.
With Ann Keith, the good-looking district nurse, he takes all the necessary measures to avoid the possible breakout of a local Indian war, the Osekas threatening to rob the cannery industry.
Mr Banning’s plan is however much more deceitful since he pretends to try and collaborate with Rogers, letting for example some of the fish go through for the Indians to catch them and even meeting them in an apparently friendly way.
Eventually Roy and his Indian friends manage to prove that Banning and Stagg schemed to burn down the Canadian cannery to improve their earnings and fulfill a huge contract ,even if it means overfishing, as well as put the blame on Nogura, who is finally proven not guilty.
