i could be wrong but not a single eastwood movie had indians in it, if there were, it was less than 5 minutes total for the whole movie and they werent part of the story, just background

Native Americans are a big part of the story of The Outlaw Josey Wales. It was one of the first times they were not portrayed as villains in a film, and in the end they were a key element of the movie’s closing theme of acceptance.

Definitely more than five minutes of that Eastwood film. But a far cry from earlier Westerns of previous decades where they were the stereotypical villain.

Two Mules for Sister Sara had an Indian attack. Not a big part of the movie, but the arrow wound treatment stuck with me.
