Avis à la une
This is one of the best movies of its kind that I have ever seen. I am Northern Cheyenne and the premise of the movie is based, I believe, on the legend of the Lost band of Suthai ( a Cheyenne band) I particularly enjoyed seeing Eugene Black Bear (the old Cheyenne Chief) Eugene is a Cheyenne and a Sundance Priest in real life. The Cheyenne language was spoken well and accurately. I would enjoy seeing a sequel to this film.
"Shutup...you!!" Fun.. modern, 'fantasy western'........with a great score..breathtaking scenery.....and wonderful sense of adventure. As an afterthought........the studio added a pointless narration by an uncredited Wilford Brimley.......arguably the most irritating..annoying..unnecessary voice over I've ever heard......this is called the Theatrical audio on the disc...& should be avoided like a week old plate of beans.
Before you play it..go to the 'Languages' section on the DVD..choose the Director's audio version...& enjoy this improbable little gem of a film.

If you can get past the premise, this is a really good movie. It has all of the elements you could ask for. The cinematography is stunning. After seeing this movie, I started looking at real estate in Banff. There is romance with good and believable chemistry between the leads, well done and believable conflict between Gates and his father in law, humor, commentary on the American West in the form of a moral lecture, and the initial conflict between the two Alpha males that turns to respect and then friendship.
The unlikely star of the movie is really the dog; I don't know if that was intentional or not, but it will make you want to get a dog like that.
My favorite and most disturbing scene is the dream sequence. For better or worse, you can actually see our bloody history with the Indians playing out all over again. That perhaps is the most striking thing about this movie: You can really imagine that perhaps we have not moved forward as a society or culture when it comes to dealing with anything that we do not understand or refuse to learn about.

I have rarely seen a movie where certain scenes run chills down my spine.
One scene in particular is the one where Lillian, and Lewis, first encounter the Native Americans. They were so dynamically beautiful, as well an intimidating in their native costumes, and paint, and their horses were painted, and decorated to the hilt. This scene didn't only send chills up my spine, but much to the credit of Tab Murphy, it brought tears to my eyes, as also did other scenes in the movie.
Yellow Wolf, who was played by Steve Reevis, was I think aware of the changing world beyond his own, and up until now the only way he could prevent the outside world from infiltrating his own was to do away with its representatives, Which meant of course killing them. Modern technology was advancing, and it was inevitable that they would be discovered in time, unless someone they could trust from the outside world could help them. As the story ended, I hoped that Lillian, and Lewis, would be the trusted folks from that outside world who would be able to help keep their existence hidden.
A beautiful story with a beautiful cast. See it if you can. you won't be disappointed.

This movie reminds me a lot of "Lost Horizon". The scenery is beautiful and anyone that's ever been up in that area can attest to it. It's both a chick flick and a guy's movie because of the great mix of emotion, excitement and action. A couple of things in the movie are a little hard to swallow, but so are a lot of things in James Bond or Indiana Jones pic's, and it never stopped anyone from liking them. Tape it or rent it if you haven't seen it, you won't be disappointed.
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe American theatrical and home video releases of this film included narration by Wilford Brimley (in third-person), which is absent from the UK version. DVD users can select "Director's Cut" in the DVD options, to watch the movie minus the narration.
- GaffesAlthough it is claimed in the film that the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers were among the Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians attacked in the infamous massacre at Sand Creek, Colorado Territory, they were not present at this battle. If they had been, the outcome might have been decidedly different. The approximately 500 to 600 Indians camped at Sand Creek were for the most part peaceably inclined, unlike the warrior Dogmen society, and had surrendered to the protection of local military authorities. They were attacked in 1864 by a vengeful Colorado militia that killed 175 Indians, many of whom were women, children and elderly. The survivors fled east to the Republican River in Kansas, where the Dog Soldiers were camped. The film claims the Dogmen fled Sand Creek and were chased into Canada, but in fact, Dog Soldiers were fearsome Cheyenne warriors who never retreated. They waged a bloody war throughout Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado for five years to avenge the Sand Creek Massacre, until they were finally defeated at Summit Springs, Colorado in 1869 by the 5th Cavalry and Pawnee scouts. A few surviving Dogmen wandered north and later joined northern Cheyenne and Sioux bands in the defeat of General Custer at the Little Big Horn.

Professor Lillian Sloan: It's a little disconcerting to realize that the smartest member of our expedition's the dog.
- Versions alternativesThere are now three versions of the film. One with the narration by Wilford Brimley. Then there is a version now running on cable movie channels with a guy talking as Louis Gates, that nobody knows who he is. And then there is a plain version without any narration at all.
