Where to watch The White Buffalo (1977) tonight

The White Buffalo (1977) runs 1 h 37 min, is rated PG in the US and averages 6.0 from 153 TMDB members. In this strange western version of Moby Dick, Wild Bill Hickok hunts a white buffalo he has seen in a dream. Hickok moves through a variety of uniquely authentic western locations - dim, filthy, makeshift taverns; freezing, slaughterhouse-like frontier towns and beautifully desolate high country - before improbably teaming up with a young Crazy Horse to pursue the creature.
