Following the defeat of the Confederacy, a dejected Rebel vet (Rod Steiger) heads west, joins the Sioux and carves out a new life. But loyalties are tested when the US Army arrives to build a new fort. Visionary filmmaker Sam Fuller’s revisionist western Run of the Arrow is a film decades a head of its time in thought and attitude, while equally connecting as an exciting action adventure.
“Steiger is the ultimate Fuller hero, filled with contradictions, but made richer and more complex because of them. Far from the standard Hollywood B picture – this one makes you think – Run of the Arrow is an exemplary entry which shows Fuller in top form.” – TV Guide
