The score was pretty incredible in that film. For a wedding once, I was asked to play a couple of tunes from their favorite films on the fiddle. This one and Braveheart were the two they picked. Turned out pretty well.
Hard to comment on this without it turning down a hole this thread should maybe avoid.
That said, what I had in mind was how they made Prey (the latest Pedator movie). Also how Killers of the Flower Moon is reportedly being made (the latest from Scorcese). Haven't seen the latter yet but with Prey, special mind was paid to representing the Commanche tribe with their input. Obviously, it's a "sci-fi" film with the Predator business but the opportunity to showcase indigenous culture in a more meaningful way was not wasted (though I wish the directors would have gone with their original instincts and had the dialogue spoken in the Commanche language).
All the other social conflicts aside, I have a special place for Native Americans. I was raised in a predominately native household - my adopted mother being Abnaki, several of my siblings are Kiowa, and a couple of my brothers are Blackfeet. My sister married into the Ojibwa nation up in Canada.
Me? Oh, I am super white.
