(Flash Review)
Times and trust are precarious between the American soldiers and the Apache Indians. The military generals strive to trust them while a rogue ex-soldier Bannon, played by Heston, refuses to trust them. In part because they killed his father yet he was also partially raised by them as well so understands how they think. Thus, Bannon is at odds with the Apaches and the soldiers. Do the Apaches want peace as much as the Americans hope or do they have a hostile strategy queued up? Heston as Bannon delivers a number of witty lines and puts the movie a tiny notch above completely average. This is literally a cowboy vs Indians movie with several fighting scenes. Pretty typical yet Heston adds a bit of smoothness to the story.
