Adapted from a novel by Theodore V. Olsen, The Stalking Moon opens in the Arizona of the Old West, as the U.S. calvary is in the process of relocating Native Americans to reservations. One of the calvary men is Sam Varner (Gregory Peck), an aging scout who is ready to retire to his New Mexico home after this mission. Varner is called upon to sneak into a small Apache camp in order to disarm the guards before the rest of his troupe rides in to round up the whole tribe. After the round-up, a white woman is discovered among the Americans. Her name is Sarah Carver (Eva Marie Saint), and she was captured ten years ago by a mysterious and vicious warrior named Salvaje (Nathaniel Narcsisco), who is not among those captured in the round-up. Held against her will, she now has a nine-year-old son by Salvaje. Although her English is very rusty from disuse, she lets Varner know that she and her son would like to be taken away from the tribe. He agrees to transport her to his home, and they set out together for New Mexico, having to overcome obstacles such as a sandstorm to get there. Along the way, they seem to sense that someone is following them, and after they arrive at Varner's cabin, they find themselves set upon by the vengeful Salvaje. Enlisting the aid of a half-breed scout Robert Forster that he raised from childhood, Varner tries to fend off Salvaje, who seems to be toying with them before moving in for the final kill.

The Stalking Moon is one of Gregory Peck's lesser movies but still a good western movie! It has a bit of the eerie in it and you have to wait to the end to make sure you watched the whole thing! Strongly recommend!

Taut Thriller
This unconventional Western is a tight, taut suspense thriller with elements of mystery and even horror. Superbly directed by the late Robert Mulligan (TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD), it has a remarkable sense of place and pace, establishing and defining characters and spatial relationships with an economy and understatement that heightens the film's story-telling power. The racial and sexual subtexts are handled with grace and subtlety.
