Kit Carson Over the Great Divide (1925)

Carson's historic exploration of the 1840s West was pretty much window dressing for this melodrama, concerning a frontier scout (Roy Stewart) who helps a homesteading doctor (Henry B. Walthall) fend off an Indian attack. Turns out the raid was a pretext for the kidnapping of the sawbones' wife (Marguerite Snow), and the two must ride to get her back. With Sheldon Lewis, Earl Metcalfe, and Jack Mower as Kit Carson. 62 min. Standard; Soundtrack: music score. Silent with music score.
