Actor: Red Eagle
When you type in Red Eagle - 2 silent films come up: Conceit and Out of the Snows - both done in the 1920's and then you get GCW Orange Cassidy done in 2019. Obviously, not the same Red Eagle. The Red Eagle in the two silent films, passed away in 1972. Someone needs to correct this.

Aren't plot outlines not supposed to have spoilers?
I read a plot outline for an episode I had not seen and discovered a spoiler at the end of it. I was more than a little annoyed to be given the ending before I had even started the episode. I checked the guidelines, which agreed with me. So why was my deletion ( https://contribute.imdb.com/contr
