Life of Buffalo Bill I-III


Several events from Buffalo Bill Cody's life are reenacted in the form of dreamed flashbacks. Many scenes are from the Wild West show scenarios, including Buffalo Bill taking the scalp of Yellow Hand, an Indian attack on a wagon train, and a posse chase of a bandit named "Buck McCandell". The film is bookended by shots of the real Buffalo Bill preparing to nap at the beginning, and then awakening at the end.
