Rating:  - Well Written
This is an excellent addition to my movie collection. The plot kept my interest. It had a good balance of joy, disappointments and inspiration. Based on facts,it was also very informative. This is a positive betrayal of a relationship between an American Indian and those who acquired the land that was once his.
Rating: - Pleased
I don't usually like Western type movies but this one is based on a true story. I found it to be very enjoyable and very interesting and I am very glad I purchased it.

I whole heartedly reccomend this movie for watching, not only for the ... Read More

The actors in this film were fantastic. Graham Greene made this character real (he's awesome anyway), and Jon Voight was excellent. Their performances brought tears ... Read More
Rating:  - Not bad but for the complete story, read the book
The movie goes into the basics but it tell nothing of the facts of why Ishi was ever discovered. The men and women and totally different roles and food preparation was not one of them. Ishi was forced to move around and could not leave his little canyon for fear of being discovered. The Californian indians ate alot of acorns which the women prepared for consumption and after the death of his sister and mother he did not know what to do and was distraught and sad. The film was good but having read the ... Read More
