Good western
25 February 2006
Good western, it does show the Indians having some dignity. But don't let that lull you into the now too-typical "All Indians Good--White Man Evil". As far as what we did to them, it was truly appalling. But as the late historian Stephen Ambrose stated in his last book, "What should have happened?" And as far as stealing land goes, I once saw some Crow Indians talking about the Souix with great disgust on how they had stolen Crow land. Besides, people are still stealing land under the same principle-- eminent domain. happens every day. The US Supreme Court just upheld it last year.

Still, a good western worth watching. We can only guess at what the secret Ann has. I figured she must have had a baby out of wedlock, been caught with another man in bed, or something like it. It's kind of hinted at when we first see her, disheveled in the back of the store.
