Description:A Texas rancher with a son, Clint (Steve Forrest) marries a Kiowa wife and has another son, Pacer (Elvis Presley). When war breaks out between the local Kiowa and the Whites, the family is torn between the two sides. They try to remain neutral, but when his mom is killed by a white man, Pacer joins the Kiowa. A short time later, his father is killed by Kiowa, so he returns in time to save his brother. He is badly injured and, at the end of the movie, rides off to die.

Review - Flaming Star

Not bad, but predictable. Elvis is fairly convincing as a half-breed with a temper. He shoots and otherwise kills several people during the movie and only sings two songs (one of them being the title song).
