no doubt how custer saw himself.


in little big man, richard mulligan nailed custer as a malignant narcissist.

both movies are entertaining, and of course there have been numerous other movies featuring the legendary last stand. every tv show set in the era has a custer episode. clint walker as cheyenne, the sole survivor (a genre in itself and including dustin hoffmann) is memorable. walker is testifying at a court martial with flash backs. great small screen action.

here s one with reagan as custer ....
