Pacer, a role played by Elvis, is a mestizo boy, son of the Kiowa Indian Neddy, the second wife of rancher Sam Burton. Happiness within the Burton family is truncated when war breaks out in the territory between the whites and the Indians, which will cause a moral dilemma in the young Pacer since he must choose which side he will ally with.
Based on the novel "Flaming Lance" by Clair Huffaker, this film is considered by some to be the best Elvis film, even though El Rey only performs one song in the film, apart from the theme song that can be heard in the opening credits. vain, the film is directed by the prestigious director Don Siegel and has the participation of great actors such as Barbara Eden, Steve Forrest or Dolores del Río. Elvis's interpretation is more than remarkable, giving reason to those who saw in the singer a great talent as a dramatic actor. Unfortunately, the box office did not reach the expected income, which led to the assumption that fans preferred to see their idol perform many songs on the big screen.
I really love this film, is there an ebook of this?
