The Hallelujah Trail
Cinerama sends you roaring with laughter and adventure down that wide and wonderful fun-trail!
Directed by John Sturges
Produced by Kappa, The Mirisch Company
A sprawling, good-natured Western comedy that revels in slapstick chaos and competing factions chasing a whisky wagon across the frontier.
A wagon train heads for Denver with a cargo of whisky for the miners. Chaos ensues as the Temperance League, the US cavalry, the miners and the local Indians all try to take control of the valuable cargo.
