For example, the white mother, at the end when her little boy is killed, she doesn't seem to grieve too much for the boy but leaves very fast with the other white guy to spend her life with him, while the father (antagonist) stays with his son and grieves and dies with him as the fire falls on him.
It feels the protagonist has more of a heart than the white blonde woman and her new lover. The cinematography is ok, I wish it was wide screen. The directing is ok but not spectacular. It has a nice energy to it, today perhaps dark paint on white skin would not be acceptable and I think that's what makes the film good. I remember this from when I was a kid and I first watched it.
