That it won such acclaim still amazes me. Despite some fine performances - notably Grahame Greene's, this is a pretentious piece of revisionist hooey. I don't enjoy it. "The Postman" was better.Wanna see a GOOD movie about native Americans and how the West was really won? See Arthur Penn's "Little Big Man." There is more truth in Jack Crabbe's darkly funny story than one can find anywhere in "Dances With Wolves." And don't you think Chief Dan George was magnificent?

What a great movie. It never gets mentioned these days (or to tell the truth, even back then). Never on cable. Thnx for the mention. Think I'll try to score it. Faye Dunnaway was one hot preacher's wife...

I and others have written up this one several times. Except for the woefully undershot battle of the Bighorn sequence it is a work of genius.
