VHS Retro Film Screening: The Great Barrier: Hollywood’s version of the Canadian Pacific Railway Crossing the Rockies December 12, 2006

A Vancouver Historical Society Special Presentation:

Moderator: Chuck Davis

A special 90 minute treat of a Richard Arlen - Lilli Palmer 1937 movie filmed around Revelstoke. It is a Hollywood attempt to replicate the CPR’s difficulties crossing the Rockies and a good time to test your own knowledge of historical events. A movie extra, who was 15 at the time and now living in Vancouver, will be present. This event is FREE, and open to the public.
