Review of Little Big Man (1970) by Audrey L — 20 Jan 2008
Little Big Man starring Dustin Hoffman and the great Chief Dan George is a timeless piece of film genius.A film quite ahead of it's time in it's telling the story of how the west was won from the perspective of the Native North Americans.
Reflects the tragedy of the American Holocaust almost as well as the book Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.The film had a great book from which to work-Little Big Man and has elements of Dickensian humor throughout in displaying hypocracy,society in general and the shakiness of "history".
A film that runs the gamut of emotions-skillfully blending comedy with tragedy long before it became a Hollywood fad.
