Read a few of the reviews on IMDB and you'll want to see it even more. It's an amazing movie. The director and many of the cast were Santa Fe locals and friends. Gary Farmer as Philbert is beyond excellent, and Graham Greene is equally moving as an Indian Vietnam Vet dealing with PTSD. It's one of the few good films about the Native American culture ever made, and an absolute delight as well for any spiritual seeker. > A couple of movies I've seen recently you might enjoy are > (unrelated to the above, just great movies): > > Harvie Krumpet (a short, contact me offlist if you haven't). > > September 11 ( a collection of short films on 9/11 themes > from all over the world). > > Have you seen "Pan's Labyrinth" (El Laberinto del Fauno) yet? No to all of them. I'll search my Limewire sources for them, and I'll be able to check on the last one soon because I'm planning a trip to Barcelona.
