Here's my pic, it's a classic, but an oldy that many of you might not have seen, it's also in my top 3.

Little Big Man
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065988/

Dustin Hoffman plays a 120 year old man being interviewed about his life as an Indian Killer in Custer's Last Stand, which is far from the truth as he spent his life being raised by the "Human Beings" (Cherokees) and switching back and forth between the life of an Indian and a white man. This movie has great comedy, drama, and some great performances, including a ultra sexy Faye Dunaway.

My favorite movie of all time. Little Bear as the 'gay' Indian.

I'm particularly moved by his seething anger at Custer and daring him to go down into Little Big Horn.

Great scene...

What's your answer, mule skinner?
General,...
...you go down there.
- You're saying, go into the coulee?
- Yes, sir.
There are no Indians there,
I suppose?
I didn't say that.
There are thousands
of Indians down there...
...and when they get done
with you,...
...there won't be nothing left
but a greasy spot.
This ain't the Washita River,
General,...
...and them ain't helpless women
and children waiting for you.
They're Cheyenne brave, and Sioux. You go down there
if you got the nerve.

I tear up during so many of the scenes, hell, almost any time I hear the bugles coming.

Another great scene is when Grandfather decides he must be invisible.
