Talk:Custer of the West

"Train massacre"
In the movie, a sergeant who has survived an attack barely escapes from the Indians by swimming a lake. He emerges and attempts to catch a train. The train, however, is ambushed by the Indians. It stops. The conductor uncouples the cars which rush back downhill. In the meantime, the Indians have set fire to a wooden trestle. When the cars roar over it, they fall into the abyss and the passengers are apparently killed. The narrator refers to the relief of Custer? Sheridan? as "Governor" as a result of the "massacre." This appears to be a fictional scene, however. Can anybody confirm or deny?

In another scene, Custer darkly listens to a Washington skit apparently mocking him. The concluding song is "Join the army with General Custer." Quite tuneful. Again fictional? Student7 (talk) 21:37, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Irrelevant Section
I'd like to recommend the section labeled "Reception" be removed or re-titled since it has nothing to do whatsoever with how the film was received upon it's release date in 1967. Times change and with it peoples views, likes, tastes and so forth. To attempt to apply how more modern critics are receiving an older film should probably be clearly titled as such. To do otherwise gives favor to inaccuracy and the sense of a lack of neutrality concerning view point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kowboy Kaziglu Bey (talk • contribs) 02:00, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
