Review of Major Dundee (1965) by Necro — 03 Aug 2009
Peckinpah was almost fired halfway during production, but actor Charlton Heston backed him and they kept him. Sam later then lost interest when directing and Heston took over for some of it. The studios also cut up his movie beyond repair.
The result is a mash of good actors doing stuff onscreen during the civil war. The movie pays off with a nice calvary battle across a small area of water, with messy and bloody fighting and everything.
Worth the watch if you have the patience for the end battle and are a fan of Charlton Heston or Sam Peckinpah.
