Not very original, but its pro-Indian stance surely was at the time. Well-wotth watching for the gorgeous scenery and photography but also for a fast pace and a good final battle. Chandler is extremely effective as an Indian. Egan and Lund are very good. Elam plays Elam. And in spite of what I read in IMDB reviews, Susan Cabot as Kochiss wife is good too. 7\10

Somewhat pro-Indian, yeah, but still very simplistic in that account. The Apache don't know how to heal wounds? - Please. ''The medicine of the white man is still very strong!'', or something like that, says Cochise, in awe. Hahahaha.

But despite that I agree with everything titoli said in the first post.

This is, in fact, a follow up to the 1950 Delmer Daves Western with James Stewart - Broken Arrow. I'll have to watch that one too one of these days.
