The Fugitive

Adapted from the 1936 novel ''Bronco Apache,'' this groundbreaking Western casts a sympathetic eye on the struggles of Native Americans in the post-bellum West. Massai, the only Apache warrior still fighting after the surrender of Geronimo, is arrested and placed on a train headed for a Florida prison. After a daring escape, he begins the trip back home to his lover, Nalinle, on foot -- but the journey is long and treacherous, and the authorities are closing in.
