Happy bithday Charles Bronson.
I love your white buffalo. And your sun glasses. And the company you keep in the wild west. Sorry about the VD, and your xenophobia about the red man and their fake truth.
pretty good. VERY cool. has some very well and sharp parts, direction-wise, but there are also some unclear moments.
not renewing anything, but fun hour-&-a-half..
Extremely creative, intertwining of fact, legend and speculation that brings Wild Bill Hickok(Charles Bronson), Charlie Utter(Jack Warden) and Crazy Horse(Will Sampson) together to take down the great spike, or also known as, The White Buffalo.

Charles Bronson delivers a good performance as Bill Hickok, Richard Sale's script(adapted from his own novel) is very creative, J.Lee Thompson's(Guns of Navarone) direction hits the mark and John Barry's score is very underrated. They only bad thing that can really be mentioned is the white buffalo itself, is operated on a track, and looks somewhat poorly and dated, however, those close-up shots of the buffalo's face still scares the shit out of me.
This movie is better than Moby Dick, and I don't say that about many movies.
movie that u catch on the t.v at night and wonder how come u never heard about it beafore-mobi dick
White Buffalo drive all like...nyeeeaahhh...but BLACK Buffalo, they be all like...wah wah wah wah!
