Naked In The Sun (1957)
An unfortunate title but the excellent Florida Seminole History page recommend it.
During the 1830s white settlers are moving into what is now Florida. An unscrupulous slave trader captures the wife of Indian Chief Osceola, setting off a war between the Seminole tribe and the U.S Army.
