Tonight's presentation in this season of feature films with action, spectacle, and excitement stars James Stewart, Jeff Chandler, Debra Paget

Set in the 1870s at the time of the Indian wars in Arizona, Broken Arrow is based on a true story which became a best-selling novel, Blood Brother. It is usually regarded as a landmark: it was the first Western to take a sympathetic view of the Indians instead of 'mowing them down.'
James Stewart plays the frontiersman, Tom Jeffords, who attempts to bring about a new understanding between the white man and the Indians.
Jeff Chandler, who had only made two films before this, plays Cochise, the famous Apache chief - a role he repeated in Battle at Apache Pass. His last film was Merrill's Marauders, completed shortly before his death in 1961.
