Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Director Mario Fererri reenacts the events leading up to the Battle of the Little Big Horn in this wild, highly stylized surreal farce set in and around a gaping excavation for a huge urban renewal project in 1974 Paris. The anachronistic backdrop highlights the incongruity of the broad comic characterizations of real life figures George Armstrong Custer, Sitting Bull, and Buffalo Bill. Written by duke1029@aol.com |

The Mad Indian:
It's your fauly, Sitting Bull. You sign peace treaties, and they wipe their asses with ourtreaties. They wipe their asses with them! Sitting Bull: This is the soldier's fury. The wise President Nixon ignores all this, I hope. The Mad Indian: They devastated our fields. Yes, our fields! They cut down our forests. Yes, our forests! They exterminated our game. Yes, our game! They poison us every day with their alcohol and their flour full of strychnine. But don't listen to me. I'm a madman! We are condemned to die on reservations. They slaughter us as soon as they have a chance, but their President doesn't know anything about it. But don't listen to me. I'm a madman. The President doesn't know anything about it. See more » |
