Dancing with success. - Dances With Wolves Reviews
Dances With Wolves is a movie made in the classic Epic style. Stunning visuals that capture the beauty and power of a people native to the expansive west.
This movie tells of the tale of a Union officer
in the Civil War. During a failed suicide
attempt that gives his men a edge over the enemy,
he is hailed as a hero and offered the choice of
any military outpost in the country.
John choices a remort post on the western fringe
of what passes as civilization.
Upon his arrival, he finds that his post is
deserted. not having any clues at first to what
has happened, he set out to repair the outpost and
as a result, draws the attention of a nearby tribe
of native Americans.
What follows is his attempt to interact with
members of the nearby tribe and stumble over the
cultural differences that each have. As time goes
on, John Dunbar learns that not all of the native
tribesmen are as the people back home portray.
And the native Americans learn that not all of
the white and pale skinned people are to be
shunned and feared.
=My Review=
This movie by Kevin Costner is in my opinon one
of the best he has made. One of the main reasons
for this is the fact that Mr. Costner uses the
talents of authentic Native Americans as actors
and extras.
Secondly, the location shots and the SFX for
this film were all first rate. At over three
hours long, it might be assumed that this movie
would drag - However I was pleased that it kept
my interest easily and was very entertaining.
