Wolf Call

According to IMDB, "Wolf Call" is based on the novel "The Wolf Call" by Jack London. Well, I tried a Google search and could NOT find any mention of this novel nor could I find it on Wikipedia. Now I am not saying it doesn't exist...but it seems likely it doesn't. So, I am not sure on which story this film is based....if any at all.

Mike (John Carroll) is a bit of a playboy. His father wants to see Mike grow into a decent man and to get him away from his dopey girlfriend and his boyish ways, he sends Mike on a mission to the middle of no where in Canada to inspect a mine he owns. Mike's job is to determine whether or not they should keep this mine* open or not.

One there, Mike has some run in with some jerks and meets a native girl, Towanah...with which he falls in love. And, the jerks try to keep Mike from keeping the mine open because, well, they're jerks! Can Mike manage to convince his father to keep this mine running?

This film is okay....just okay. A decent enough time-passer but offering little that would make it a must-see film.

*The plot says it's a radium mine but if I am not mistaken, radium is made through processing uranite and I would think they'd refer to it as a uranite mine. Of course, I am no expert on this.
