So, while far from perfect, this is very much the best Custer movie ever made and highly recommended to anyone who wants to learn more about what really happened. I keep hoping that one more major Custer movie will get made and finally get it all right.
Aug 1, 2004 · In terms of historical accuracy the best Custer battle sequence is in the 1991 ABC mini-series Son of the Morning Star – although Gary Cole’s depiction of Custer is abysmal. The battle in Disney’s 1958 film Tonka (about the horse Comanche) is also remarkably accurate, especially considering its target audience of children.
Jan 21, 2021 · Gary Cole plays George Custer in this two-part, made-for-TV movie about his career as a post-Civil War Indian fighter. He’s portrayed as a man who fears his fame and Civil War glory is slipping away, who’s frustrated by the fact that he’s no longer wearing a general’s star.

Son of the Morning Star: Custer and the Little Big Horn is a nonfiction account of the Battle of the Little Bighorn on June 25, 1876, by novelist Evan S. Connell, published in 1984 by North Point Press.
Although Kevin Costner was the first choice to play Custer, the role eventually went to Gary Cole. [1] The movie was partially filmed on private property near the Little Bighorn National Monument in Montana near Billings, where a fort was built at a cost of $200,000. [3]
Mar 31, 2013 · Son of the Morning Star is a very good movie. If you want to read a very detailed and objective book on the Bighorn campaign, I recommend A Terrible Glory by James Donovan. I just finished and am starting a re-read of it.
