The Baudine brothers included:

• Kurt Russell as Morgan "Two Persons" Baudine who had been raised by the Cheyenne Indians until freed by the Cavalry. Morgan spoke fluent Cheyenne. His knowledge of the Native American culture helped him on his quest for his sister who was captured by a different Cheyenne tribe eight years earlier.
• Tim Matheson as Quentin, a young medical student who was raised by an aunt in San Francisco.

TRIVIA NOTE: A similar plot appears in the classic John Ford western The Searchers (1956) starring John Wayne who, as Ethan Edwards, a returning Civil War veteran, heads out into the hostile territories to find his niece Debbie (Natalie Wood) who was abducted by Indians. His intentions, at first, were to kill the girl because she had been tainted by the savages, but in a heartfelt reunion, he picks her up in his arms and carries her home to her parents.
