Review of Thunderheart (1992) by Jed D — 27 May 2011
A superb thriller based on the oppression of Native Americans caused by the greed of U.S. economic expansion. The film was shot on location at Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota giving it a very authentic look.
It contains some great shots of the American west which never ceases to evoke a deep spiritual awareness. I think it would be easy to "lose yourself" in such an untamed and mysterious region.
Even though the ending keeps it from being a great movie, "Thunderheart" is a worthy film on par with "Dances with Wolves", "Broken Arrow", and "Black Robe".
