I love this classic war film, even if it is a little inaccurate. At least they didn't totally rewrite history like most Disney/Mel Gibson films!
Really interesting film based (loosely) on the life of George Armstrong Custer. It's certainly guilty of a little hero worship, but a whole lot of fun.
Trivia Tidbit: Flynn and DeHavilland's last film together.
The best of the Olivia de Havilland and Errol Flynn pairings, after the Adventures of Robin Hood of course. Great supporting cast, rousing, fun, romantic, action...it has it all. Flynn is, of course dashing and great. A classic.
Not much do wih fact/history, but still fun to watch, including Anthony Quinn as Sitting Bull (?)
Historical hogwash, Errol is dashing and Olivia looks lovely but that's not enough for the overlong running time
Errol Flynn is hilarious,at least in the firs hour of the movie before it went totally western,he was like XIX century version of Mahoney from Police Academy
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "They Died with Their Boots On" !
