Chief Crazy Horse
HE HURLED THE LANCE THAT SMASHED CUSTER THAT HISTORIC DAY AT LITTLE BIG HORN!
Directed by George Sherman
Produced by Universal International Pictures
A tragic Western told from the Lakota perspective, chronicling Crazy Horse's rise as a military leader amid the collision of cultures over gold and sacred land.
When young Crazy Horse, of whom great things were predicted, wins his bride, rival Little Big Man goes to villainous traders with evidence of gold in the sacred Lakota burial ground. Of course, a new gold rush starts despite all treaties, and Crazy Horse becomes military leader of his people. Initial Indian victories lead to the inevitable result. Uniquely, all is told from the Indian perspective.
