Walk the Proud Land
(1956)
Anne's Niche: Actress
Character: Tianay
Cast and Crew
My Too Cents: This must have been a big feature, it looks like it
could be a good ole western. But I just couldn't get over the indians and the
stereotypes. Anne plays an indian with a bad makeup job and broken english.
Synopsis:
___
Slow screen biography starring Murphy as John P. Clum, famed Indian agent
responsible for encouraging Geronimo (played by Silverheels again) to surrender
to the authorities. The film sees Murphy as a noble ex-soldier working
diligently at setting up a system so that the Apaches will be allowed
self-government. Into the drama are thrown marital difficulties between
Murphy and his wife Crowley. Crowley doesn't take kindly to widowed squaw
Bancroft's attentions to her husband, and she would like nothing better
than to move back East. The climax, when Silverheels surrenders to Murphy,
is less than thrilling.
