Review of Smoke Signals (1998) by Tracy D — 26 Feb 2010
I've long wanted to see this movie and always forgotten it whenever the opportunity has supposed arisen. For a period there when this movie came out when I had to real focus in my life, I studied a lot about Native American cultures. I wanted to see this not only because it was made by American Indians, but because it was a slight comedy, which I felt was rare for modern setting movies. And this one works because it plays it all for realism.
It has good performances and a smartness to keep it all grounded in the personalities and actual world of you, me and the real people these character represent. It?s a good movie that stands some viewing. It is short and sweet and hits the notes it needs.
