About this product
Product Information
This violent drama is based on an allegedly historic encounter between white settlers and the Cheyenne Indians, of the west. Based on Theodore V. Olsen's novel ARROW IN THE SUN, the account enacts the struggle of a U.S. soldier named Honus Gant (Peter Strauss) and a white woman named Cresta (Candice Bergen) who has been captured by the Indians two years earlier. The pair is hoping to stay alive until they can reach the nearest army outpost. When the Cheyenne slaughter the paymaster's party, with which they have been travelling, the two carry on to encounter several unusual characters. Donald Pleasance is perfect in his portrayal of Isaac Q. Cumber, who holds them captive, while hoping to sell the Cheyenne guns, in order to acquire some of gold they stole from the paymaster. When Honus is wounded, Cresta goes ahead alone, only to discover that the army plans to wipe the Indians out entirely. She hopes to return to help Honus, and warn the Cheyenne to flee, before the handful of them that are left, are wiped out. Ralph Nelson directs, and keeps the allegiances even, revealing the true tragedy behind the conflict.Product Identifiers

Soldier Blue
This film was made in 1970. You can tell this by the non-native Native American Indian people in it. Saying that, the film shows some of the true horrors that the Natives had to go through for America to be what it is today. The persecution is still ongoing and the government is still trying to bully and rob the Native Americans. More people should be educated about this. The main female character is funny, clever and brave and the main man is opposed to her views but as the story goes on he realises the true nature of the war. It’s a love story and a look at the political stance of the American government at the time. Shows beautiful countryside and magnificent mountains. An oldie but a goodie. Would recommend.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Superior, tragic western
I had never seen it before and only knew of it's controversial reputation . Certain aspects haven't aged well but overall it's still as powerful as a punch in the nose . Definitely worth watching and infinitely superior to any of John Wayne's bilge .Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent clarity and sound quality. Still a great film after 50 years considering lack of special effects at the time.
