Greater than one weekSo many times has Hollywood made films about life/career stories of American Generals. Take Patton for instance. Need I say more? A wonderful film in itself but, not completely accurate. Hollywood, in the 40s, could not make a movie like Saving Private Ryan. I applaud this movie for the horror and ugliness of war that it portrays. A movie like that made in the 40s would have killed morale and faith in the American war machine. That is why history needs a boost per say and a little inaccuracy for spice. This an example of just that. This is a fine story of one of Americas heroes of the Civil War and the Wild West. Hollywoods rendition of his life was fairly true and the history involved in the battle was not. This film, however, was a great couple of hours of action and a little romance. Another fine classic for all Errol Flynn fans to own. He was made for this role.

Greater than one weekIf you are a Flynn collector, this is a must have as he plays Custer and Anthony Quinn is Geronimo. While historically inaccurate, it is nonetheless entertaining. Lots of action and even humor. If there is a crticism, it is long-2 1/2 hours.

> 3 dayThis is one of my favorite movies of all time. The actors, the action and the background music are the best. The 7th Cavs theme song, Gary Owen sends chills up my spine every time I hear it, especially played with the fife and drums. Its the most inspirational marching song around. Marching to battle to Gary Owen is marching to glory.

> 3 dayIt is hard to believe how long ago this movie was made. It shows the lighter side of Custer and how plain dumb like made such an impact on his life. I am not a historian so I have no idea if this movie is historically accurate. (To be honest, I am not a stickler for it being an accurate portrayal.) If you like watching old movies, this is a good one.
