Arthur Penn’s Little Big Man is a pioneering blend of epic Western, comedy, and drama, offering a meaningful perspective on the conflict between settlers and Native Americans. The cultural impact of the humanized portrayal of the Cheyenne redefines the history of the United States through the eyes of 121-year-old Jack Crabb. A seemingly naive yet resilient character, whose cultural transitions between the world of the whites and that of the Cheyenne capture the essence of the Wild West rather than simply recount historical events. Chief Dan George’s sensitive performance as Crabb’s grandfather remains the film’s most memorable element. The film serves as a powerful allegory, balancing humor and drama, and is acclaimed for its bold vision, offering a moving and timeless commentary on American history.
