“Arrowhead” stars Charlton Heston as Ed Bannon, a cavalry scout in Texas. Jack Palance plays Toriano, the son of an Apache chief. The two ultimately must face each other down in combat. Jack Palance starred in many westerns throughout his career, including when he earned an Oscar for his supporting role in “City Slickers.” Heston was no stranger to the western either, starring in many classics of the genre, such as “Will Penny” (his personal favorite) and Sam Peckinpah’s “Major Dundee.” What’s your favorite Palance or Heston movie?
