Basically it's from Hollywood and revisionist history. And, as a matter of fact, I could not care less what your view of Native Americans is.

You mean "Lawrence of America" and how a white guy teaches poor iggorant Indians to defend themselves?




"Dances with Wolves" would be the one with Indians teaching a poor, ignorant white guy how to live well and fight with honor. 


Dancing with Wolves is a crock. It presents itself as the first movie to portray indians in a positive light.


Little Big Man did that many years before Dances. I love any movie that has Chief Dan George in it, he did an outstanding job in The Outlaw Josie Wales; he is sorley missed.

Marcion, before Little Big Man there was Cheyene Autum, even though no Indian actors in major roles.


And I also agree with you on Dan George. I got to meet Will Sampson once; nice fellow, shame he died young.

Little Big Man and Josie Wales were both superb Films.

Without chief dan george's humor and wit Josie Wales would be just another Clint Eastwood western.
