In the course of the story, he experiences prejudice from both the whites because of his race and the Navajos, who disown him because of his upbringing. Thus, Wing Foot is looked upon as neither Indian nor white, but simply a "redskin."

    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The sequences of Native American life were shot in Technicolor, while reels two and three, in which Wing Foot goes away to college, were photographed in black and white and printed in sepiatone. This was an artistic decision which worked very well, and not a financial consideration as erroneously reported elsewhere.
    • Alternate versions
      The American Film Institute's print of Redskin, in the Library of Congress, contains Technicolor sequences and amber tints over the rest of the scenes.
    • Connections
      Referenced in Ratskin (1929)

      Sung during the opening credits by an unidentified female singer

    More interesting as a document then as a story
    Wing Foot, son of a Navaho chief, is forced to attend a US Government run Indian school. There he falls in love with the Pueblo Corn Blossom and pledges to marry her. They are separated when she is called home on a pretense and forced to marry a tribe member. Wing Foot soon realizes that he will never be accepted by White society and returns home. After many tribulations, he brings peace between the Navahos and Pueblos and gets to marry Corn Blossom.

    One of a number of pictures made in the 1920's and 1930's that put a melodramatic story in an exotic setting.

    Unusual for being sympathetic to the Indians, who are poorly treated by the US Government and by most Whites.

    Most interesting for showing Navaho and Pueblo costumes and material culture of the time.
