Der Berg Ruft (1938) - The Mountain Calls …full length video

It's in German, but the story of the attempt to climb the Matterhorn is so well known you get the gist.  The story covers the race to the top to claim the mountain as Italian or Swiss - of course it's on the border - but it's more frequently thought of as a Swiss mountain, since the first ascent was from that side.  This is a classic in the German Bergfilm tradition which started after WWI.
