Valley of the Giants (film)

Valley of the Giants is a 1938 American Technicolor adventure film/lumberjack Western directed by William Keighley, written by Seton I. Miller and Michael Fessier, and starring Wayne Morris, Claire Trevor, Frank McHugh, Alan Hale Sr., Donald Crisp, and Charles Bickford.

Howard Fallon along with Hendricks, Lee Roberts, Ed Morell, and Fingers McCarthy go to California and try to procure Bill's land.

Accidentally the claims Howard had towards the land get destroyed in a fire giving Bill a chance to reclaim ownership.

Costumes were designed to match the images in several scenes, notably when the red-shirted hero in each picture works his way along a train carrying huge cut trees in order to stop the caboose carrying his love interest from plunging into a gorge.

The Big Trees uses the long shot from Valley of the Giants of Ox (Alan Hale Sr.) sliding down a cable to have the character played by his son accomplish the same feat.
