It's going to be re-released in a new version next year! Milestone will be releasing it I'm thrilled to say (he also "presented" our 1961 film THE EXILES) along with two silent era films that feature all-Indian casts. Every time I hear that older films are less "sophisticated," I can say that there were silent and early sound films that actually hired Native Americans rather then, say, hire Valentino to play a Comanche.

And I have to say that a reboot of Hawk starring Adam Beach would be a great idea. One of the things I have bemoaned the past many years has been the total absence of Native American characters on American television.Terence Towles Canotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397088843628331615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-412349548038723311.post-4015085978030438752013-06-12T07:57:25.148-07:002013-06-12T07:57:25.148-07:00Thanks so very much for reading my piece -- and bi...Thanks so very much for reading my piece -- and big thanks for the tip on REEL INJUN.
