They Didn’t Ride Bareback
For the most part, the Sioux used to ride their horses barefoot. However, this increased the chances of the actors falling from the horses, especially during high-speed chase scenes. Re-enactors and horse wranglers encouraged the players to wear saddles as a result. “It’s great as long as we don’t notice,” the producers said. The performers wore blankets over their saddles to make it appear as if they were riding barefoot. It appeared to be true on screen, and the actors did not have any major blunders.
