In Reply to: "Little Big Man" I consider one of the dumbest films of all time. If there's an actor with a more posted by tinear on December 2, 2009 at 18:15:30:
Actually Hoffman's character is not native American-his race is not stated in the story, to my best recollection. He is part of a settler's wagon train that get massacred by American Indians (not certain of the tribe), and he is captured and raised by the Cheyenne. His character can't seem to succeed in either Indian side or the white side. I guess one could call it a picaresque, violent tragicomedy. That's a mouthful! The military battles and massacres are based on historical occurrences. I thought it was mostly excellent, and very unsettling. Richard Mulligan's Custer, and Dunaway's wife/prostitute are grand characters. The native Americans are portrayed with compassion and humanity. I saw it several times in theater, and can't find anything negative to say about it. A fine western.
