I dunno if I'd go so far as to call this flick a classic since it doesn't and never really did have much media hype to push it as a classic film. But I highly recommend it. It is the true story of Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Indians who led his tribe away from the US government who betrayed their contracts and wanted to seize their land and put them all on reservations. Chief Joseph tried to be peaceful, yet a war breaks out between the US and the Nez Perce. This movie is the journey of the Nez Perce and how the US army was led on a wild chase across four states.
