Background: As a result of the battles between the government and the Indians in 1892, many of the Cheyenne were kept in prisons for years. This movie is about an Army Capt. that reluctantly agrees to escort a dying Cheyenne Chief back to his tribal land. Needless to say the journey is met with a host of problems, people and emotions that bring this story into a parable of humanity trying to emerge from the endless slaughter of human life on both sides.

Christian Bale plays an outstanding role bringing to the story his past life that includes his morals, sensitivity and realities that are driven to the forefront from embarking on this trip to return the chief to his home.

I personally thought this story line was spot on and very fitting to reveal the good in humanity that comes through when all the world seems to be crashing around you.
