Well-deserved Award Winner although "Goodfellas" was absolutely great and should have won it too.

+Piontro Pechetrini except coffee was not brought by the settlers :))

Bianca Oneata Thank You Pretty, I love to learn something new everyday. Who brought the Coffee then? I would have never thought about that point.

Well, coffee comes from Africa and different parts of Southern Asia. It did not exist in the Americas as such. For example coffee reached Poland through merchants trading with the Ottomans. Instead, Cocoa beans were to be found in South America, in countries that we now know as Columbia or Venezuela.

Bianca Oneata Thank you I remember now it was some monks who used the coffee for the first time after a shepperd notice that his sheep were acting hyperactive after eating the leaves of the Coffee tree. But at some point the coffee most have reached the United states, remember that this situation was around the 1880s not so early in the USA history.

...But with EACH wanting/expecting something from the other. The idyllic fantasy is pleasing but nonsense.

yes me to

Same. I'm mixed and 4 Native tribes are in my blood; Blackfoot, Seminal, Choctaw and Cree. I'm learning the Sioux tribes' language (Lakota). It's so beautiful and I love how the language flows when the actors speak.

yeah me too avatar needed moments like that to be great but it was very one-sided.

It’s not accurate about the Sioux at all.

Wind In His Hair has one of the best character arcs in the movie.

well it's common now, so imagine never tasting after what i would say he's probably in his 20's so 20 years never tasting any kind of sugar treat

I like when wind in his hair put sugar in kicking birds coffee 😏😂😂

Wc will destroy his beautiful white teeth

Yes absolutely, I agree with you, thats the actor Rodney A Grant and he is actually one of my cousin from the U.S :) Edit: I changed the little face at the end of the paragraph because I accidentally put the a sad one which i wasn't so post to

Graham Greene is a Iraqoui from Canada

It won 7 Oscars. Do you think it should have won 8?

@@ravenchain85 Even winning all those Oscars it seems to not be mentioned many times when talking about Western movies. Winning 8 wouldn't be bad!

@@ravenchain85 I had never heard of this movie until I saw it randomly once on TV a few years ago, I guess it has just kind of been forgotten.

@@rogerhuber3133 people still literally bring it up all the time. Maybe you mean people just don't think of it as a "Western" film even though it is? Part of that might be because there's a stigma around it anyone playing it safe is just going to "forget" to add it to their list of Westerns.

It is indeed, ONE of the best western movies ever made; but Blazing Saddles was THE best! 😆

30 years!?! Damn, I'm getting old! I remember seeing this film in the cinema, when it was released. My first very wide screen very long film. Left quite an impression. The scenery, story, acting and music made for a very memorable evening.

Hope you got the extended edition

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carolyn Irick Agreed! He could convey so much with his eyes.

Yes

That's kickin Bird

Did u guys watch him on Son of the morning star?he was playing Crazy Horse and hr was awesome there too..and Crying Wolfes 3

When I saw this movie there was something about Winds in his hair that struck a chord within me.... many years later I looked up his brthdate....9.3.59 mine is 8.3.58..exactly 1 year a apart

given how much he didn't like john it was nice to see a smile on his face in this scene

It was a tactic to weaken an advisory! Sugar was considered a drug at one time just like they small pox tactics they used against the indigenous populations.

i like the one throwing the sugar it's a nice little humor scene with him covering his cup

I love that to. It is funny.

Graham Greene adlib for sure.

Unfortunately I think you’re right

no Blackrobe is much better!

Right. Now, can we have an equally well-made film about how the Plains Indian tribes (and all the OTHER indigenous ethnic groups) exploited one another? Including the slavery, of course. My own Celtic and Germanic ancestors were just the same, back two or three thousand years ago. But then came Roman civilisation, backed by Greek philosophy and science, and then came the moral revolution that was Christianity. These things were not available to the indigenous peoples of North America, but now they are. So, all's well that ends well ... or, would present-day Lakota, Cherokee, etc. like to go back to their previous ways of life? Perhaps? Thought not.

@@DieFlabbergast... was für ein dummes Gelaber?! What stupid nonsense?!

I laughed! And I still do

I love the whole movie when he says hi mind gone mames me laugh and the coffee scene

*Little Big Man* was a far better movie.

@@DrCruel As well as super depressing.

@@Darksky1001able Truth usually is.

I'd say it already was.

It is now.

👊👊👊👏👏👏✌️✌️✌️

Now you Know.

Me too

Graham Greene was so gorgeous in this film

Know him for only two things! Dances with Wolves, and his hilarious role as Edgar Montrose 😂

I loved him in Northern Exposure

He's really great in The Last of Us. Just a small scene but powerful acting.

​@@charliewatts6895 he also played Arlen Bitterbuck in the Green Mile.

@northern_lights Perhaps you could educate all of us.I saw no intended disrespect in Brandy's comment,just her delight and wonder at how close the past is.

Well, we are still here bud.

I agree.

For the most part, during the Lewis and Clark expedition, relations did go like this. Friendly contacts were established with the Mandan, Hadatsa, Shoshone and several other tribes. Not so much effort was made by the white men who followed them.

J H a lot of european opposes the oppression of natives in fact early on but the greed of the wealthy and ambitious led many to disregard this and continue their fervorous expansion west and south etc. regardless this wouldn’t have happened if disease had not ravaged the natives who seemingly weak were pounced on and ignored and seen as a dying people anyways. Natives survived but their low number and the growing numbers of Europeans couldn’t be helped. America was conquered without actually being conquered by guns or sword but by disease. The American manifest destiny was just an opportunistic idea given that native numbers were low so why not take the rest of the land? Make money etc. the “conquering” of the americas is nothing to be proud of. It’s like kicking a sick person while they are down and considering yourself the victor. At full strength even Vikings had a tough and unsuccessful attempt to colonize the americas.

In New England, the natives were initially treated very kindly, as the natives had returned the favor and then some. It was really only when the western expansion began towards western Massachusetts that the rough edges appeared. The New Englanders made hunting and fishing treaties with the tribes, shared knowledge, education, and even began to intermarry. The very first class at Trinity Divinity School, which later became Harvard, had a Native American in it. His story is incredible, and you can read it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caleb_Cheeshahteaumuck The christian settlers believed that they had found a land promised by god. It followed logically to them that the natives would therefore be children of god, unspoiled by the rest of the world. Trust me, the story is a lot more complicated than the modern caricature.

@Tony Mario damn fucking right people seem to forget natives were similar to gangs lol

+Piontro Pechetrini I understand you and somehow i share your feelings..... We were also hunters too by the time of the neanderthals though

We're not so far removed. I'm SittingBulls granddaughter and still see pride in so many. The media makes us look bad, like so many other nations. We're still here and strong.

Help us with our fight for our Creator given right for water. Our Grandmothers, Grandfathers, Mothers, Fathers, Aunties and Uncles were buried here. They took bulldozers and dug their bones up before our eyes. This is 2016, there are no rights for us, not in death or life.

Frankie Flannery true

Lainey doll the only reason the greedy ones managed to take over was because your people were diseased by them. At full strength I highly doubt it would have been so easy. Regardless by greedy I mean the wealthy who to this day control every aspect of American life and don’t care if your white black etc they just care about cash and power.

That's a lot. ..

@northern_lights Dude, they were indeed less developed than Europeans - or the Chinese or the Indians or the Ottomans for that matter, unless you think in terms that might allow you to re-define the color purple to be green. Relativism does that to ones' intellect. If you can't define human development in absolute terms, then you are confused on many levels. Also, I never said this fine film created a romantic view per se, only that there are many commenters who simply repeat the view that the indigenous peoples were somehow flawless examples of humanity, living within a balanced natural paradigm that has somehow been lost because of intrusion by another civilization. Intrusion happens. Conquests happen. It has always happened - everywhere, all the time. If the lecture is too real, you can always move on

OMG! IT’S A MOVIE. What is pure & strong? The acting? The portrayal of fictitious characters?

Mine to he is so adorable and so funny the suger scene was so cute

When do they get to FIRE WATER.

***** Nope, at least not from the USA.

this movie makes me hate mankind even more... I prefer animals than people honestly

Why do so many people blame the white man for everything and think life would be peachy keen if not for him? The Indians, or natives if you prefer, still had wars among themselves and what they did to captured prisoners is no different than what white men did. Maybe you've heard of what the Japanese did to the Chinese before the start of World War II? No white men involved yet you'll be horrified at what went on. Whatever one man does to another, one nationality does to another, one race does to another, it's a humanity problem.

Let's not forget 'Little Big Man' though.

For those who don't know "Kevin's Gate" was an allusion to one of the greatest movie failures of all time "Heaven's Gate," which went so overbudget that when it bombed at the box office, the studio, United Artists was forced into bankruptcy. I suggest folks go read up on "Heaven's Gate" as the troubled film still causes nightmares for studio executives and impacts how films are made.

And this is without a doubt waaay better

No pueden que courage don podemos denuciar

not no more?

no, I grew up

No slavery? Try cracking open a history book sometime commie. Plenty of tribes had slaves.

The most exciting scene in all the film's in my life = in the night Dunbar hears a distant rumble & it grows as the buffalo are coming ---it was all I could do to stay in my seat in the theater !!! Will Never forget it----or the bits of Lakota language I learned in the film !!! Marvelous film & congratulations to Costner & all responsible !!!!!!

But also very few “civil rights”. Look at how women were considered in those societies.
