Has anyone seen the late 70's film "Ulzana's Raid" with Burt Lancaster? About a renegade Apache chief who decides to flee the reservation with his braves, it strikes me as the least romanticized version of the Indian Wars that was ever made.In general, Westerns that depict this fighting portray the whites as honest, salt-of-the-earth types against the murdering savages (pre-1966) or honest, salt-of-the-earth Native-Americans against the murdering white men (1966-today).
