Hello everyone!
We are edging ever closer to Christmas, but I'm going to stick with my movie celebrations right up until the last minute, so buckle up for this one.
I've chosen Dances with Wolves, a film depicting the horror with which soldiers treated Native Americans during a period of history that disturbs many people.
In particular I'm focusing on the John Dunbar theme...
Dances with Wolves
This film resides in a special place in my heart because of the way it depicts the friction and outright hostilities between the Native Americans and the soldiers who were claiming their land as their own. I'm not here today to say whether I think that's right or not as that's not the purpose of this post.
What I will say is that it is themes like this which prove that music can be just as powerful a tool to tell a story as can the latest blockbuster to hit cinemas.
Let us move ever closer to Christmas where I will incorporate that into my movie celebrations themed posts.
Until next time...
