Older film with Tom Berenger about a bounty hunter who finds a lost tribe of Injuns. Fictionally set in my neck of the woods, but filmed over the border in BC.
Every once in awhile I have to rewatch this movie and I'm never disappointed. Good story, decent acting, great scenery. I think there's a little Lewis Gates in me sometimes.
If you haven't seen it, give it a shot. It's on Prime.

At the end there is a dream sequence where the chief is surrounded by lawmen, helicopters the whole deal. he takes a stake that is tied to his ankle and sticks it in the ground. This is a incredible demonstration of native American lore. "Here I make my stand" and I am not aware that it has ever been shown in film elsewhere.
I could not find the clip, but here it is in the film:

I love this film. I watch it once every couple of years. I like the Wilford Brinkley narration. I know narration isn’t a good fit for everything, but when done properly it can really add to the story.

I do enjoy that show.

Those are great recommendations, I will check with the wife and we'll probably give it a look.
