An excellent portrayal of modern Native American life.

This excellent movie is on PLEX. I saw this originally on HBO but could not find it to watch on any platform. I remembered about a month ago and found out it is on the PLEX channel to watch and enjoy. ( 5/9/2024.) The movie has excellent acting and shows the modern lifestyle that Native Americans are challenged with whether it be dealing with the cultural aspects or the everyday issues that are intertwined with the average Native American upbringing. Being part NA, I connected with this story instantly. Whether it be in California, New Mexico or even New York city, this story will ring true to any Native American viewer.

Want to find a copy

I actually lived on the title name street in Santa Rosa,CA. when the movie was filmed the cameras rolled right past my house and that scene is in the movie. I saw the movie as soon as it came out but never got a copy. I would really like to see it again, but have had no luck finding it.

Love This Movie....Know Where I Can Find It??

I can only find Grand Avenue on ebay but it is the cut version. I cant find the uncut version. If I would have known how hard this movie would have been to find I would have recorded it in 1996. I really want this movie. If anyone know where I can find it or if anyone recorded it from HBO when it first came out, please let me know. I am dying for my husband to see it. This is by far the best movie I have ever seen. Really sad too but it is great. Even if someone has the tape and I could dub it or something would be great. I would do anything to get this movie. You can email me at jpb357@windstream.net or call 859-548-2852

gut wrenching, excellent!

I cry every time I see it, I recorded it on VCR. The white haired medicine woman who appears in the beginning was a good friend of mine, she passed away shortly after the release of the movie, I briefly met Mr Sackheim at the funeral. I wish it would be made available on DVD here in the US, as I would like to keep it as a family treasure. Is there any way I could find out if and when it's made available on DVD? Perhaps HBO could show it again to spark new interest, I read the book as well and with all due respect to Mr Sarris, the movie is far better then the book, usually it's the other way around, the acting is first class and the story, although a bit tough at times is gut wrenching and eye opening to everyone interested in modern Native American life.

i lost this movie but i want to buy the video again

this movie really touched me! because the family is all mixed up, while the mother tries hard to cope with life. while justine does things that are wrong. and alice tries hard to be the responsible one. I live in the city, but somehow i learn from the movie. because the way it is to live in the city. you have to fit in to survive. unless you go somewhere else like to finish school, have a family, to be responsible. people can learn from watching the movie. it also shows to be compassionate to other races and your own people. but i'm really from garden hill, manitoba, its also tough to live anywhere cause trouble is everywhere until you make it better in how you live. it was too bad i lost the movie. it cost me $30.00

Alice: What about the social workers?
Mollie: What about 'em? They got 'em in Santa Rosa just like they got 'em on the rez. For all I know they got 'em on the goddamn moon.
Justine: They would if we was there.
