was a film from 1956 that highlighted both myths and realities about the Old West. It depicted the extremely harsh and unforgiving environment (as well as diverse environment) throughout much of the west. In the film, as was usually the case with Hollywood depictions of the west, Native Americans are the villains (in reality they were often the victims of encroachment or violence from Anglo Americans). The film does a tremendous job of demonstrating the racism and distrust between Native Americans and Anglo Americans.
