The blending of cultures? AMAZING!! hide show
This is my favorite thing to watch. i probably know most of the words by now. i have seen all six episodes from start to finish. I love the into music to all of the episodes it just starts it off perfectly. This show teaches everyone alot about different cultures blending and the struggle they had and also the rewards they achieve when they dont give up their dreams. The story line is amazing and there are so many characters that interact with eachother. The whole story keeps you watching and you cant help but stay interested. I recommend this to everyone, no one can resist but like it!!!!Its AMAZING!!!
I watched the mini-series on TNT. This movie blew me away. I came away from this embarrassed to be white. I think it shows the white man as the true savage. It pulls you into such a gripping story, and never lets you go. Great cast, great directing, great locations. How could anyone rate it other than a 10 ? I would recommend this film to anyone period. My wife,who is one quarter Cherokee, watches it 1 or 2 times a month. Absolutely the best ever made for TV mini-series ever produced. Stunning portrayal of just how self-centered the white man really is. The native Americans lived such a rich and satisfying life before European invasion of their land. We could learn a lot from them, about living in harmony with nature,instead of destroying it.
Learn about American history. hide show
This is one show that I certanly learnt a lot about American History. I do have to admit I did not know to much about it but Spilberg put a good twist to it so you can see what it was like in those times and how America was built. Coming for a European background it was certanly an eye openner.
i knew when i first heard about this mini series it was going to be good. the story of two families, one native american and one white and there almost hundred year journey in the west. it did not dissapoint. stephen speilberg produced one of the best western mythology tele films of all time in my opinion.
