Little Big Man (1970)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 147m
Director: Arthur Penn
Cast: Dustin Hoffman, Martin Balsam, Faye Dunaway, Chief Dan George
Synopsis:
A white child is orphaned by Indians and brought up among them, returning to frontier society to become a gunslinger and Custer's scout.
Review:
Freewheeling western with much of the fun and blood of Bonnie and Clyde. It drew on the new pro-Indian ethos (cf. Soldier Blue) and combined it with a healthy scepticism towards all storytelling. Too challenging for home audiences it was however a huge success in Europe.
