  • "C'est à la demande du gouvernement que le pionnier Tom Jeffords se bat pour la paix auprès des Indiens. Il remporte une victoire éclatante lorsque, après avoir sauvé un jeune guerrier, le chef Apache Cochise lui accorde son amitié, puis la main de la princesse Sonseeahray de sa tribu. Tous ne veulent cependant pas que les fusils se taisent. Dans le camp des Apaches, des renégats déterrent la hache de guerre tandis que des Blancs, des racistes fanatiques, multiplient les provocations. Après la mort de Sonseeahray, tuée dans une embuscade, Jeffords et Cochise unissent une fois de plus leurs forces pour punir les coupables et éviter que toute la région ne s'embrase des flammes de guerre...

  • "En 1870, un pionnier, Tom Jeffords, s'efforce d'établir un traité de paix avec les Apaches. Il rencontre un accueil favorable de la part de Cochise et épouse la princesse Sonseeahray. Mais des Indiens renégats et des Blancs hostiles aux Apaches provoquent des troubles où Sonseeahray perd la vie. La paix sera pourtant maintenue."
  • "One of the most important Westerns ever made, "Broken Arrow" tells the haunting tale of the friendship that develops between Tom Jeffords (Stewart) and the Apache chief Cochise (Chandler) as Jeffords struggles to make peace between settlers and Apaches. As Jefford's relationship with the Apaches, and in particular with a beautiful young Apache girl deepens, his situation, and that of the Apaches, becomes increasingly unstable. The film was groundbreaking in its humanist portrayal of the Indians and controversial at the time for its measured portrayal of relationships between whites and Native Americans."

  • "Fiction. Western. Arizona, 1870. La guerre fait rage entre les blancs et les Apaches. Ancien éclaireur, Tom Jefford apprend patiemment le chiricahua, puis part dans les montagnes rencontrer le chef Cochise pour faire des propositions de paix. Hôte du camp Apache, il s'éprend d'une indienne d'une merveilleuse beauté, Sonseeahray. De retour à Tucson, Tom annonce les premières promesses de Cochise à la population incrédule : les courriers seront autorisés à traverser son territoire. En brisant symboliquement une flêche, Cochise scelle avec le vieux général le début de la paix avec les blancs tandis que Tom épouse Sonseeahray à la mode indienne. Mais Géronimo et quelques uns de ses partisans décident de continuer le combat. Chez les blancs aussi, certains fanatiques ne désarment pas: Ben Slade et quelques complices tendent une embuscade à Cochise et un groupe de braves. Sonseeahray est tuée dans l'escarmouche. Ivre de douleur, Tom veut la venger. [Site Web: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La%5FFl%C3%A8che%5Fbris%C3%A9e (visionné le 9 avril 2009)].

  • "This groundbreaking western pits Stewart as an ex-army scout and Jeff Chandler (in a formidable, Oscar-nominated role) as Apache leader Cochise striving to achieve peace between whites and Indians despite 10 years of war. The peace is threatened, however, when Stewart enters an affair with an Indian woman."@en
  • ""Released in 1950, this groundbreaking western - arguably the first to feature an Indian hero - stars James Stewart as Tom Jeffords, an ex-army scout with a conscience who embarks on a one-man peace mission with the Apaches following ten years of war between settlers and Indians. Forming a diplomatic partnership with righteous Apache leader Cochise (Jeff Chandler, in a formidable, Oscar-nominated role), Jeffords later falls in love with an Indian girl who he marries in an Apache ceremony. He then brokers a three month truce with Conchise that is broken by renegade settler attacks before a lasting peace treaty is renewed. A movie that shifted the political boundaries of the western film genre, Broken Arrow is a tense, violent but delicate retelling of the Indian Wars that features towering performances from Stewart and Chandler"--Container."
