You do see him, and he's a major figure in this long story, but there is no real central character in here. Also, for those who assume, as I did, that this film is a biography of sorts of Theodore Roosvelt, before he became President of the United States, might be a bit disappointed. All the shooting and cannons, etc., become too repetitive and get boring. After awhile, with only a few very short lulls, you get tired of it.
Then, for the rest of the film - 90 to 120 minutes - it's almost non-stop action. I say "edited" because, after the short stage-coach robbery scene in the first minute or two, nothing much happens for almost an hour. This three-hour, made-for-cable TV in America story of Cuban battles in the Spanish-American War was good enough to sit through once but not edited well enough to see it again.
