Curiosità

The Invaders is a 1912 American silent Western film directed by Francis Ford and Thomas H. Ince. The movie tells the story of broken treaty between a Sioux tribe and the US by railroad surveyors.

Production

Thomas H. Ince rented the Millers Bros. 101 Ranch Real Wild West Show, to lend an "authenticity" to the film. The show's cowboys, buffalo, and Oglala Sioux were used in several of Ince's films (notably, War on the Plains). Ince brought the traveling show to a leased area in Santa Monica meant to mimic the Dakotas that would come to be known as "Inceville".
