White Feather (1955)
Director: Robert Webb
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Can it be possible? Co-scripted by Delmer Daves five years after his Broken Arrow, another white man (Wagner) strives for peace with Jeffrey Hunter and the Indians, and falls in love with a squaw (Paget again). If you can withstand the feelings of déjà vu from the descendants of Broken Arrow, this is, in all fairness, a cut above its relatives. It looks convincing (it's based on fact - the defeat of the last of the Cheyenne warriors in 1877), the Indians are portrayed as human beings and not pantomime characters, and an exciting climax is well handled.
