SITTING BULL (1954): Full Western Movie, Full Length Cowboy Film, English. Sitting Bull is a 1954 Eastmancolor Western film directed by Sidney Salkow and René Cardona that was filmed in Mexico in CinemaScope. In a greatly fictionalised form, it depicts the war between Sitting Bull and the American forces, leading up to the Battle of the Little Bighorn and Custer's Last Stand. It was the first independent production to be filmed in the CinemaScope process. Featuring sympathetic portrayals of Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, The New York Times called it a “crazy horse opera“. A cavalry officer sympathetic to the wronged Sioux fixes a meeting between Chief Sitting Bull and President Grant but a dishonest Indian Agent and a hateful General Custer test the Sioux's patience, threatening to derail the peace-talks. Director: Sidney Salkow Writers: Jack DeWitt (screenplay), Sidney Salkow (screenplay) Stars: Dale Robertson, Mary Murphy, J. Carrol Naish PLOT (Wikipedia): M
