Flaming Star
CHOOSE!... Between your white father and your Kiowa mother !
West Texas in the years after the Civil War is an uneasy meeting ground of two cultures, one white. The other native American. Elvis portrays Pacer Burton. The son of a white rancher (John McIntire) and his beautiful Kiowa Indian wife (Dolores DelRio). When fighting breaks out between the settlers and natives, Pacer tries to act as a peace maker, but the 'flaming star of death' pulls him irrevocably into the deadly violence.
