A "true story" where the Natives just love love the Confederates and the Union is the bad guy? And we are supposed to believe the Confederate soldiers are all prejudice free and hanging out with free Blacks also?
Obviously written by someone based on revisionist neo Confederate nonsense. The screenwriter doesn't have a single other writing credit. Some of the other reviews point to the poor writing also.
In real life most of the Natives who "took" the Confederate side were drafted. The Native leaders were often slaveowners, but the other 90% weren't. And Native soldiers deserted the Confederates en masse and joined the Union Army given the first chance at the Battle of Pea Ridge.
The later parts of the film are more accurate and better written, more confident in their story.
