My review of the 1939 film Drums along the Mohawk staring Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert is available at Amazon.com here.
Ironically many of the faces you will see in this movie would shortly be associated with John Wayne as he had his own breakthrough film Stagecoach the same year.
This movie is shown frequently on cable, if you can’t find it at your local video store keep an eye on your cable network.

Netflix has it, DVD and streaming. Also a good book.
Never read the book. I should.
