"Little Big Man", starring a very young Dustin Hoffman as Jack Crabb the mule skinner, based on a true story of a hapless guy raised by the Sioux Indians (Human Beings) and how Jack happens to survive at Little Big Horn. Not to mention all his bizarre adventures in between. It's the clearest view of how the US Government treated the American Indians back when our country was still forming.
This is one of my favorite Top Ten Movies of All Time. I give it a 9 outta 10. Every time I see it, I see something new and insightful, that I didn't catch the last time I watched this.
Cheif Dan George as Grandfather is incredible. What a great, great film!!
