About the Event

The only movie tribute to the great explorers Lewis and Clark and their “voyage of discovery” of the Louisiana Purchase and beyond from 1804 to 1806. While history takes a back seat to drama, Donna Reed’s portrayal of Sacajawea is outstanding, as is the location photography amid Wyoming’s Grand Tetons. This is a companion film to the Special Collections exhibit “Exploring the West: The Legacy of Lewis & Clark.” Paramount. 1955. Technicolor. 108 mins.
