A great moment sin military history... The Battle of the Greasy Grass was outstanding... It was propably the closest thing to the real thing... maybe good ole Oliver Stone can do better one day...
I now have a copy on DVD.....
happy to find this this is my all time favorite moveie and i was very pleased it was found and in excellent condition, however i really would like to find it on DVD because all they had was on VHS so if you hear of someone having it on DVD please let me know
Where is the DVD? This is such a wonderful film which goes into my all time top favourites along with Geronimo with Wes Studi, Last of the Mohicans etc. Telling the real story of Custer. Excellent all the way through apart from the slightly annoying voice of the famale narration but that is more than made up for my Rodney A Grant at his MOST gorgeous and charismatic as Crazy Horse. Time the DVD was released!!!! Where is it?
DVD ASAP This is the best production of this story, I'm mystified why it is not available on DVD?
The film calls out for an even more accurate version to be made Everyone seems to have an opinion on this subject, but the fact is that none of us were there when it happened. Many of us think we know the truth more than others because we are historians, teachers or history buffs. We can research it to death as I have throughout my life and read all the books. (see "Where Custer Fell" by James S. Brust). But we can't go back in time to 1876 and watch it unfold before our eyes and see what really transpired. So if you think Custer was a hero or idiot or goat during the LBH battle...well no one knows for sure. Reno and Benteen did not know what wrong either and they WERE there.
One story said that the Last Stand battle itself took about as much time as it takes for someone to eat lunch.
"Son of the Morning Star" is the best movie version yet of the battle. At least it looks like the Greasy Grass plains of Montana and not in the desert area of Monument Valley!!! Custer was not fighting southwest Indians like the Apaches either (see earlier film versions) So at least this movies attempts to be accurate in some ways.
Is Oliver Stone going to make his version or is that a tossed script?
Where is the DVD?!!!!!! My VCR broke and I don't plan on replacing it. This movie I can watch numerous times, so again, WHERE IS THE DVD???!!!!
