ROCK HUDSON - TAZA, SON OF COCHISE - 1953

This is not a script but it is Production Notes - not for publication.  These notes were inter industry notes / synopsis that were not for the public to see.   They tell how the filming, the location, the internal goings-ons, the actors,etc how they did and what it was like.  They are very interesting and not for the general masses of population.  THEY ARE A FUN, INTERESTING FIND.

SYNOPSIS:

Three years after the end of the Apache wars, peacemaking chief Cochise dies. His elder son Taza shares his ideas, but brother Naiche yearns for war...and for Taza's betrothed, Oona. Naiche loses no time in starting trouble which, thanks to a bigoted cavalry officer, ends with the proud Chiricahua Apaches on a reservation, where they are soon joined by the captured renegade Geronimo, who is all it takes to light the firecracker's fuse...
