jewelie-27395 I'm writing this review mainly to highlight the excellent acting job by Sidney Poitier and Regina Taylor. Their story line was the most refined, and they are a joy to watch. The other elements had some weakness, but overall I enjoyed this miniseries (which I hear is better than its movie counterpart "A Good Day to Die", where the many scene-cuts take their toll on the story). I appreciate another reviewer who indicated the historical inaccuracies; I always like to know if what I'm watching is real or fabricated, so thanks for that. As far as the ending...(SPOILER ALERT)...I would have written a different one that included a surprise escape, but that's just me. I can see why the writers when for high-drama; every actor needs a good rebellious-death-scene-with-screaming female now and then.

khemet Don't know what film or version Jeff saw, but this entire film was awesome, not just Poitier and Going. The story was riveting, suspenseful and engaging. And for the guy complaining about historical accuracy, get real. Yes there were some Black deputy marshals in the Indian territory, but they had no authority to arrest Whites outside of Indian territory. As a rule, they did not "patrol" but exercised warrants on criminals only. I did find it odd that Corby didn't seem to have "any' Indian friends. I know their numbers were diminished but it still strikes me as strange. Even as Corby returned to his people, his Indian cohorts remain faceless and nameless.

letarawrites I'll admit to only wanting to see this film because of Billy Wirth, which for me was well worth the eleven dollars I spent on the DVD, but for fans of more violent westerns, this isn't the film for you. It was was good movie but I was expecting more action. The dialogue at times was kind of crappy as well as the acting, mainly from Joanna Going but the story was good. Billy Wirth most certainly looked the part of a Native American and did a pretty good job playing one, too. I'm not sure which storyline I liked better, Sidney Poitier's romance, Billy Wirth and Joanna Going's romance, or the ounce of action involved in the movie but it worked. Overall, this was a good movie that's worth the watch.

Audrey Beavers This has to be one of the best movies we have seen and we highly recommend it for it's exposure of the injustices of bigotry. Billy Wirth is an incomparable actor and truly awesome as Corby/White Wolf. However, felt the story would have been enhanced if his character had more scenes. This is a movie that can be watched over and over without tiring.
