The Big Trail (French: La Piste des géants) is a 1931 French western film directed by Pierre Couderc and starring Gaston Glass and Jeanne Helbling.[1] It is the French-language version of Fox's The Big Trail (1930) starring John Wayne and directed by Raoul Walsh. In the early years of sound it was common to make multiple-language versions of films, until the practice of dubbing became more widespread.[citation needed]
