This film's description just might be my favorite on IMDb - "The fact that an Indian tribe is eating puppies starts an action packed battle in a western town." How you gonna not watch after reading that? Well, unless you're put off by yet more overt racism from D.W. Griffith, that is. Like Birth of a Nation, there's some impressive film-making in context of the time, but the content is just a bit too hard to deal with.

Ohh, those savages! There is a good story-telling even though it's the most banal and racist one

A damn shame. Several remarkable battle sequences are spoiled by a silly, overly sentimental story and some horrible racism. Similar in some respects to The Birth of a Nation. Just replace freed slaves with Native Americans and shave off a few hours.
