Nikki, Wild Dog of the North (1961)

Nikki, Wild Dog of the North (1961, USA) C-74m. **½ D: Jack Couffer, Don Haldane. Starring Jean Coutu, Emile Genest, Don Haldane, narrated by Jacques Fauteux. Disney adventure about a wolf-dog, who gets separated from his owner and must try to fend for himself in Canadian wilderness. Rather similar to the Jack London adaptations, if based on a novel by James Oliver Curwood. An okay family movie that becomes quite dramatic towards the end. Beautiful scenery compensates for somewhat familiar storyline (it is based on a novel by James Oliver Curwood, not Jack London).
