Full Plot Details

A highly fictionalized account of the life of George Armstrong Custer from his arrival at West Point in 1857 to his death at the battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876. He has little discipline at the academy but is prepared to stand up to the senior cadet, Ned Sharp, who makes his life miserable. While there he catches the eye of the commandant, Col. (later General) Phil Sheridan and also meets his future bride, Elizabeth Bacon. Graduating early due to the Civil War, it is only through a chance meeting with General Winfield Scott that he finally gets assigned to a cavalry regiment. He served with distinction during the war and when he is promoted to Brigadier General in error, he leads his troops in a decisive victory. He has little to do after the war turning down lucrative positions in private industry and it's his wife who arranges with Gen. Scott for him to be appointed a Lt. Colonel and given command of the 7th Cavalry. He is depicted as a friend of the Indians who will fight for injustice, in the form of his old nemesis Ned Sharp who is taking advantage of them and trying to provoke a war with his own financial gain in mind. Custer died in the the now famous battle on June 25, 1876 at the age of 36.

Movie Reviews

Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Nick SchagerEndures as one of the finest Flynn-de Havilland collaborations.
Classic Film and Television - 6/10 by Michael E. GrostPowerful, if heavily fictionalized, Western, with dynamic direction by Raoul Walsh.
User Review - 10/10 by Maiyu CSadly the last film with Flynn/De Havilland but possibly their best together... historically inaccurate but a great film!
User Review - 10/10 by Scott Serrol flynn is awesome in this educational classic.
User Review - 10/10 by Rocio Bthis is my favorite movie of this genre. errol flynn is an excellant Custer.
User Review - 10/10 by Joe LGreat movie about a great American Hero. I read the book written by General Custer, My Life on the Plains. It was a incredibly well written and captivating account of his time. It proves he was equally intelligent as he was courageous. Where the movie is fictitious, I am sure Custer was better than advertised. History and movie buffs should not fall prey to critics who systematically seek to water down any of the great leaders in American history.
User Review - 10/10 by Destiny GI thought it was an amazing film. With great leadership ! loved every it of the movie
User Review - 10/10 by Stan DThe story of George Armstrong Custer, with a lot of Hollywood fiction thrown in, starring the great Errol Flynn (who incredibly never got an oscar), in his last movie (of 7) that he starred in with the great Olivia DeHavilland. Great action, a witty script, highly entertaining, and a great love story. With Sydney Greenstreet, and a fantastic musical score.
User Review - 10/10 by Allison PI love this film. We are going to blame Kia. It was on the tv while she was sleeping and I stayed awake watching the movie. I so love Errol Flynn now.
User Review - 10/10 by Mark Kstrange choice but watched this film a million times when i was younger!Errol Flynn is the man!they dont make films like this anymore.would'nt be surprised if they made a big blockbuster.but good luck trying to replace THE MAN!
