The Far Country is a 1954 American Technicolor Western film directed by Anthony Mann and starring James Stewart, Ruth Roman, Walter Brennan, John McIntire and Corinne Calvet.

Written by Borden Chase, the film is about a self-minded adventurer who locks horns with an evil, corrupt judge while driving cattle to Dawson, Yukon Territory.

It is one of the few Westerns to be set in Alaska -- others include The Spoilers and North to Alaska -- although it was not filmed there.[4] This was the fourth Western film collaboration between Anthony Mann and James Stewart.
