River of No Return

on BBC Two England

starring
Robert Mitchum
Marilyn Monroe with Rory Calhoun
Widower Matt Calder and his young son are hard at work developing a farm on the borders of the River of No Return when into their lives come a young saloon singer and her gambler husband.
Monroe as the bar room entertainer is a perfect match for the laconic Mitchum in this rugged adventure set at the time of the 1875 gold rush, and filmed amidst spectacular Canadian scenery.
