<P> The movie is most notable for originating the name of the "Wilhelm scream", a sound effect used in the Star Wars film series, as well as countless other movies including the Indiana Jones franchise, Disney cartoons and The Lord of the Rings film series . Sound designer Ben Burtt named the sound after "Pvt . Wilhelm", a minor character in the film who emits the famous scream after being shot by an arrow (although the recording actually originated in the Gary Cooper film Distant Drums in 1951). When the film screened at the Second World 3 - D Expo at Hollywood's Egyptian Theatre in 2006, much of the film - savvy audience broke into applause when Pvt . Wilhelm screamed . </P> <P> The climax of the film has many similarities to the 1868 Battle of Beecher Island, though instead of Army Frontier Scouts, Madison's character recruits "the Guardhouse Brigade" from Army prisoners and arms them with repeating rifles . Some have also noticed that the plot bears a number of similarities to the later Major Dundee, directed by Sam Peckinpah in 1965, notably the journey leading up to the climactic stand - off . </P> <Ul> <Li> Guy Madison as Miles Archer </Li> <Li> Frank Lovejoy as Sgt .
