Seminole Uprising

Seminole Uprising is a 1955 American Western film directed by Earl Bellamy and starring George Montgomery based on the 1952 novel Bugle's Wake by Curt Brandon.

[1] Set in 1855 Texas, Army Lt. Cam Elliott (George Montgomery) is detailed in capturing a tribe of Seminole Indians who have fled their Florida reservation for the Lone Star state.

Wise to Indian ways and somewhat sympathetic to their plight, Elliott tries to avoid bloodshed and negotiate a peaceful return with Black Cat (Steven Ritch), the Seminole leader.

Variety gave the film a tepid review, saying that it was a "fairish Western" but too formulaic to build audience interest.

Montgomery gave "some credibility" to his starring role and Hinton was "suitably unpleasant" as the villainous rival, the Hollywood trade journal opined.
