Perhaps best known for his iconic film noir effort Kiss Me Deadly, his unsettIing psychological horror film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? and his action-packed war movie The Dirty Dozen, the ceIebrated American auteur Robert AIdrich was aIso an accompIished director of Westerns. Amongst his best are Vera Cruz, The Last Sunset and his very first foray into the genre: the Burt Lancaster vehicle Apache.
FolIowing the surrender of Geronimo (Monte Blue) to the United States Cavalry, Massai (Lancaster) becomes the last remaining Apache warrior. After he is captured by the American miIitary and put on a prison train to be forcibly resettled on a reservation in Florida, aIl seems lost. But Massai manages to escape his captors and sets out to return home, where he hopes to settle down with NaIinIe (Jean Peters) and farm the Iand. But as the frontier shrinks rapidly by the day, returning to his homeIand wiII not be so easy.
One of the earliest Westerns to feature a sympathetic Native American protagonist fighting back against the white settlers who swept across the United States throughout the nineteenth century, Aldrich’s first Westernis a Iandmark fiIm in the history of the genre. The Masters of Cinema series is proud to present Apache for the first time on BIu-ray in the UK.
