1913 film
The Yaqui Cur is a 1913 American silent Western black and white film directed by D. W. Griffith , written by Stanner E.V. Taylor and starring Robert Harron , Kate Bruce , Walter Miller , Charles Hill Mailes and Victoria Forde .[ 1] [ 2] Griffith directed seven films with more than one reel , including The Yaqui Cur and The Little Tease (1913).[ 3]
This film is one of the most ambiguous spatial moments in Griffith's work because the gesture is so forcefully directed outward,[ 4] and it is considered one of Griffith's most bizarre films.[ 5] There is a romance between a Native American woman and a white man .[ 6]
