They put a lot into this movie and deserve a 10 for effort. I believe I saw a couple of power lines in the showing in Helena, Montana in 1978 where it was filmed but I have not seen it in a while and they may have been edited out later. This was an interesting production. As the costume assistant I was able to work with Dave Powell (son of famous western artist Ace Powell who was a modern day Charles Marion Russell). The making of the movie and getting to know the cast members and crew was an experience for me at 16. A lot of interesting things happened during the production. I recall that at the end of the movie they did not use the actual actors credited as they had walked off the set for the sunset scene. Some were out fishing with my dad. I could go on and on. I enjoyed most of the experience, made a lot of clothes (here is an old shirt, make 16 just like it). Lana Wood's measurements were approximately 47x17x32, fun dressmaking all around. Thanks for the experience Mike (producer and great guy) - I still think of you and don't have crows feet yet - Thanks for the memories, Warren's daughter.

This tale features the corny professionalism that makes American International Pictures so fun to watch. Although politically incorrect and revisionist, it touches the heart. The viewer sees the late Natalie Wood's sister giving it her all. Alex Cord goes against type to be genuine in his depiction. Western fixtures Ben Johnson, Jack Elam, Paul Fix, Charles Pierce, etc., enhance any horse opera. Critics, use your free rental coupon to watch 'Dances with Wolves'. Fans of Samuel Z. Arkoff, get the popcorn ready. You'll also need a handkerchief and a strong stomach for the implied violence. Just sit back and enjoy the show.
