SOLDIER BLUE (1970) was made during an era when Hollywood was redefining its view of Native Americans.
After years of showing Indians as blood-thirsty savages, hit movies like LITTLE BIG MAN and A MAN CALLED HORSE presented these people as relatively peaceful "human beings," and the white man as the villain.

Rating: - Great, and timely docudrama
I first saw this film while I was a college freshman, and at the time volunteering to tutor Indian kids in central Wisconsin. Another reviewer referred to it as an "anti-Vietnam War" film.

The story is based on a novel. That, in fact, is why I can only give it four stars. It's about the Sand Creek massacre, one ... Read More
Rating: - Native american history
Soldier Blue is one of my favorite western, Indian films of all time. The story is basically about a soldier that is very devoted to his duties. He meets a woman with a totally different view of things. He later discovers that things not always are in black or white.
