Authentic period piece about the horrors of the Indian wars
Robert Aldrich was a director I much admired, directing some of my favorite films: Kiss Me Deadly (1955) – the quintessential Mike Hammer flick – Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte (1964), The Flight of the Phoenix (1965), The Dirty Dozen (1967) and others. Now, after missing it for over thirty years, I can now add this one: as a truly realistic and accurate portrayal of what would have happened in one of many skirmishes during the Indian wars of the late nineteenth century.

This is a mature and sometimes grossly horrific account of what Apaches did to settlers and soldiers, and what soldiers did to Apaches. It pulls no punches in depicting how the marauding band of Apaches eviscerate the dead and play sport with the entrails of victims, how they rape and torture wives of settlers, how they torture the men slowly and most cruelly. But, it also shows how soldiers are driven to perform cowardly, and equally cruel acts when retaliating, in the name of justice.

And caught in the middle of this mayhem is young Lt. DeBruin (Bruce Davison) who’s given the task of rounding up Ulzana (Joaquin Martinez) and his band of Apaches who left the reservation, stole some horses and began to lay a path of destruction and death across part of Arizona. Being fresh out from military college, he needs help; and so, the fort commander (Douglass Watson) sends the grizzled Army scout McIntosh (Burt Lancaster) along to provide necessary advice and guidance – together with a company of toughened army veterans kept in check by a weary sergeant (the ever competent Richard Jaeckel). Rounding out the ‘posse’ is the Apache army scout Ki-Ni-Tay (Jorge Luke) who provides the young DeBruin (and the viewer) with insight into the mind of the Apache.

The story resolves to a cat-and-mouse game between Ulzana and his pursuers, each trying to outguess and outmaneuver the other across and through the wide and desolate expanse of the Arizona hills and semi-desert. So, it’s as much an entertainment as it is a lesson in the tactics necessary for the soldiers to gain the upper hand. There are some wonderful landscape shots that illustrate just how difficult the task was; and there are moments of sheer brilliance when Aldrich shows Ki-Ni-Tay’s on-foot pursuit of one of Ulzana’s band, a standout sequence of stealth and suspense.

Throughout all of this McIntosh brings his long experience to bear upon DeBruin’s decisions, convincing the lieutenant to set the only trap that would fool Ulzana into making a mistake – McIntosh reiterating many times that “those who make the first mistake” will lose. All too true because things always go wrong with the best laid plans…

Once again, Lancaster shows the master’s touch in this role: his crinkly eyes, lined face and quiet voice attesting to a man who’s seen it all and who just wants to get a job done and survive another day. Which makes Davison almost perfect as the cherubic – almost angelic – faced neophyte who wants to do well but who also wants to change his world and make it better for all – including the Apache. Such irony…

The only jarring notes were the sometimes-quick cuts (which made me wonder if some scenes had been deleted); and the sometimes-peculiar music sound track that you have to listen to, to understand my point. Otherwise…

Not recommended for children as this film does contain some graphically awful scenes. For all adult fans of the western genre, however, I thoroughly recommend a viewing.

Review By: RJBurke1942
A western to chew over.
The US cavalry have just learned that apache leader Ulzaza has left his reservation with a band of followers and now has gone on a killing rampage. They get in Indian tracker McIntosh to help young idealistic Lieutenant DeBuin and his small cavalry track him down and bring him back. However what DeBuin encounters on his journey, the aftermath of Ulzana’s raids begin to have an affect of him. His naïve and bias standpoint comes to the forefront, as he tries to come to grips by questioning McIntosh and his trusted Indian guide Ke-Ni-Tay.

Director Robert Aldrich’s grim and savage western is a lot more thoughtful in its conservative context (allegories to war — Vietnam) than its blood-drenched images might suggest. Still while trying for this angle; it’s not something we haven’t already encountered in other films of its ilk. With it having varying viewpoints (Christian values of everyone being one, the matter of trust and simple racial conflict) towards the Apaches from the greenhorn Lt., his men and that of the Indian scout and his apache guide. Where emotion (hate) gets in the way of rationality (the motivation might not be any better for both sides — as no-one is clean-cut), and it becomes a calculative mind game between the two parties of waiting for the slip-up to finally pounce. Early on the narrative feels episodic, but then it straightens up for the chase but Alan Sharp’s well-rounded script is compellingly respectable in its detailed descriptions. Aldrich’s competent handling keeps it hardy and earthy with the unsparing tone and brutal acts (violence, torture and rape) suiting the scathing sun-baked Arizona terrain. Burt Lancaster looking rugged gives a rock solid performance as McIntosh and the fresh-faced Bruce Davison is agreeably good as Lt. DeBuin. Joaquín Martínez is stout-like as Ulzana and Jorge Luke is excellent as Ke-Ni-Tay. Luke’s character is the bridging aspect to both sides. Burly actor Richard Jaeckel also would appear.
