I'm taking two courses for my library media endorsement program, but they did not commence until this week. The movies are for one of the courses that I'm taking at Salish Kootenai College, Native American Images in Film. It has been an interesting course. I won't have access to the movies in the D.R., so I have watched all 16 movies since January 7. When I put it that way, it probably doesn't sounds as intense as it has been some days. Anyway, these are some of the movies I've watched. Basically, most of the movies were "historical" dramas about Indian and U.S. military wars. Yeah, not really my thing. There are four movies that I would recommend: Smoke Signals, Powwow Highway, Once Were Warriors, and The Fast Runner (Atanarjuat).

Annmarie,
Just so you know, Once Were Warriors has some intense violence, but it is very good. I want to see the sequel.

I had to watch Once Were Warriors for my Restorative Justice class as part of my Masters degree. I thought it was great, but our professor didn't warn us about the violence and I was ill-prepared for it. When I know it's coming I can handle it, but . . .
Almost caught up, Honey. :)
