  The first half an hour of the film drags slightly but is worth sticking with. The story is hugely based on a white man being accepted into a Sioux Indian tribe during his capture. Im not sure what percentage of the cast were true Native American Indians, but no doubt a good percentage were not. Worthy watching just for the build up to one particular honour proving scene.

  Poorly written and performed (except for Richard Harris) ethnographic western. The brutal "vow to the sun" ritual, Harris in the lead, and some (not all) religious symbolisms are good points, but no matter how good I think it turns at some points, the lack of depth is its… More
  Poorly written and performed (except for Richard Harris) ethnographic western. The brutal "vow to the sun" ritual, Harris in the lead, and some (not all) religious symbolisms are good points, but no matter how good I think it turns at some points, the lack of depth is its fiercest enemy.

  An unusual western which admirably treats the American Indian with a certain amount of respect, but it shoots itself in the foot in terms of credibility by having a Greek, a Fijian, an Australian, etc, playing the Sioux. Though he's perfectly good in the role, Jean Gascon's character feels too much like a shallow device for helping Harris, and the viewer, understand the tribal customs. Fascinating, nevertheless.

  I saw this for the first time in 2007. It seemed quaint - unrealistic. I didn't have that same feeling with Dances with Wolves for instance.

  Richard Harris brings some weight to an otherwise clunky story in which a white aristocrat wins the respect of his native american captors and eventually joins and leads their tribe. It's a little patronizing and lacking in subtlety at times, but it's a well meaning drama… More
  Richard Harris brings some weight to an otherwise clunky story in which a white aristocrat wins the respect of his native american captors and eventually joins and leads their tribe. It's a little patronizing and lacking in subtlety at times, but it's a well meaning drama about cultural identity. (ooh my nipples...)
