jayaline L @RT06114254 Aug 5, 2026 I can't believe there are only two reviews here pointing out the obvious – that this film is a horrible racist film. Audrey Hepburn plays a native girl that is essentially "a stolen baby", having been taken from a Native American tribe after whites slaughtered her whole tribe years earlier ... Her birth brother is seeking to reunite, and he is shown as noble and honourable, and his cause is just too !!! Despite all this, in the end Audrey Hepburn is encouraged to take a rifle and slaughter her own people, and in the final scene, her brother stands before her and smiles because he expects a reunion, and she shoots him in the gut point-blank, and for Audrey that's the happy ending, and then she hugs Burt Lancaster !!! Complete racist garbage. I am sorry I saw this one. Avoid !!! See more KarthiK P. @madkarthi Jul 7, 2026 It felt like a smooth ride. But it gets boring because of its length. It features a pretty routine punch. But it is okay. I still enjoyed the overall vibe of the film. See more Sam V. @Samelectrico Apr 22, 2026 Enjoyable because of the wonderful actors despite a week storyline See more Per S @RT83737705 Mar 4, 2026 Very different western with quite a cast starts out amazingly in a realistic environment, but the final becomes an absurd fantasy where the narrative is overexplained. Could have been great. See more Bear B. @BearB Nov 29, 2025 Severely underrated western that deals with the complexity of family, community, loyalty, conflict, death, and more. A uniquely mystical western with an interesting cast of characters. Well acted and directed. Hepburn in the role of a dramatic and impulsive teen that finds herself in an impossible situation is compelling. Lancaster delivers one of his best performances as a stoic leader with suppressed emotions. Some characters are intentionally difficult. Worth a second or even a third watch to appreciate the complexity. Very interesting film that asks hard questions.
