good movie for those interested in seeing Dale Robertson of the early 50s era. The picture is not as clear nor are the colors as vibrant as one could wish, but the story is very good and in all enjoyable. Historic value also is there; woven among the fictitious characters and such is the story of the battle at Little Big Horn, with a more accurate treatment of the Indian viewpoint than was usual in the early 50s era movies. I had bought the movie for someone else, but when I watched it I was rather surprised that I liked it as much as I did. I only wish that the picture and color could be remastered, perhaps the sound as well. It would be well worth the trouble.
