Review of Dances with Wolves (1990) by Jens S — 03 Jan 2011
Costner's unexpected Western triumph is still a wonder of a movie two decades later. Not only does it take its time to introduce the situation and characters, without ever being boring, it's also one of the films treating Native American characters with respect without making them all good, or all bad, but human.
Humor plays a huge part in this film and makes for some of the most memorable scenes. The acting is top notch, especially Graham Greene created an outstanding character with his Kicking Bird. Costner himself did a fantastic directing job, telling this enthralling story in beautiful and unforgettable pictures.
To top it all, John Barry wrote one of the most beautiful soundtracks ever for this. One of the best films of all times.
