A Man Called Horse is a book by Dorothy M. Johnson which was originally published under the title Indian Country (ISBN 0803275854) and which was filmed in 1970 with Richard Harris in the lead role.
Joining the tribe, he undergoes painful initiation rites, takes the native name "Horse", and becomes a respected member of the tribe and ultimately their leader.
In the book Horse is from Boston and in the movie he is from England.

 Filmtracks: The Return of a Man Called Horse (Laurence Rosenthal)
The sequel, The Return of a Man Called Horse, was, through the involvement of Kershner and his associates, a significantly more sensitive and realistic portrayal of Native American culture on the big screen.
After The Return of a Man Called Horse, which even Rosenthal agrees to being one of his finest compositions, both Meteor and Clash of the Titans (despite the shortcomings of their films) would continue to interest film score enthusiasts.
For The Return of a Man Called Horse specifically, Rosenthal would have the opportunity to infuse a classical, European sound (from the perspective of the title character) into an ethnically rich canvas inspired by the Sioux tribes.

There was no flinching in the man, who, when robbed of his horse, stripped to the shirt in a forest and left upon a lion's track, looked down with a botanist's eye on the beauty of a tiny moss at his feet, drew comfort from it, and laboured on with quiet faith in God.
When we return to the Gambia with Mungo Park under the same escort with a coffle of slaves on their way to be shipped for the use of Christians, from the strength of his unlaboured narrative we get clear knowledge unclouded by a rainbow mist of words.
This man had acquired a considerable property in the slave-trade, and, from his hospitality to strangers, was called, by way of pre-eminence, jatee (the landlord), and his house was a sort of public inn for all travellers.

 A Man Called Horse [1970] - Compare prices
American Indians were "cool" in 1970, the year A Man Called Horse made its vigorous, feverishly real, and occasionally shocking debut alongside Little Big Man and Soldier Blue.
Unlike the latter two films, however, Horse is less an allegory for Vietnam-era America and more of a vision quest for historical identity.
Horse looks clunky, quaint, and inadvertently demeaning in some respects today, but the film's Native-American milieu is at least defined on its own terms, making no concessions to familiar Western conventions.

Plot Outline: The English gentleman known as Horse, returns to the American west to save his adopted Indian tribe from extinction.
from UK The first sequel to A Man Called Horse {there was another one a few years later which turned out to be something of a disappointment} is a much more conventional adventure movie.
The early scenes do a really good job of showing the film's hero,again well played by Richard Harris,as a man who appears to have everything-a title,a big house,a wife,etc} but inside is empty because he was only truly himself when he was with the Sioux.

But along came A Man Called Horse (also 1970), a modestly budgeted Western that starred him as an English aristocrat captured and tortured by Sioux Indians.
He did two sequels, The Return of a Man Called Horse (1976) and Triumphs of a Man Called Horse (1983), neither of which enjoyed the original's success.
Harris' pivotal year, 1970, also saw the actor turning his attentions behind the camera: He cowrote the screenplay for The Lady in the Car With Glasses and a Gun (in which he did not appear) and directed as well as starred in The Hero (released 1972), playing an aging soccer star.
