Short Review

Many Rivers to Cross is a boring film. It is about a 18th century trapper who finds himself entrapped into marriage by Mary Stuart Cherne. Robert Taylor and Eleanor Parker give terrible performance. The screenplay is badly written. Roy Rowland did a horrible job directing this movie. I was not impressed with this motion picture.
