Ulzana's Raid (1972)
6/10
Ulzana, good or bad?
28 December 2005
Probably many of us had the question, good or bad? when finish watching the film. Aldrich was always fond on Indian problems, but in fact he never went to the roots of the problem. Ulzana seems to be a killer without mercy, the dialog between the officer and a recruited Indian left me also with the sensation that Ulzana and his followers were killers. However, some ambiguity was also left when Lancaster said to his officer that he was married to an Indian woman and that Apaches should be understood. The film was right indicating the intelligence of the movement of the Indians in their fight against the white army. As an entertainment the film is OK, but historically it is poor in general.
