I would have to say my favorite westerns stems from more ov the truth, then glorified Calvary. SOLDIER BLUE, with Candice Bergen. It classified the Calvary as been the true perpetrators ov the massacres. The native Indians were trying to get along with the palefaces as they would say. In the history books it placed as being the opposite. This movie didn't get much acclaim, just for that fact. Pail faces would take, and cut off the heads ov all Indians
**** the women & children, cut off womens breasts & make tobacco pouches out ov them. Some were also known to take the skins for shoes. I can understand why it wasn't put books, because ov the embarrassment. This movie was released in the 70s. It was very well made with beautiful acting. Very thought provoking movie, I would say a must see at the least. Sad to watch, but learned alot from it as it was truly based on someone's journal that was not happy with mankind and he was not Indian.
