Title: Pato a great actor
Review: I notice that other reviews commenting on the omission of Pato Hoffman's name from the list of stars of this film have been removed. I consider it insulting that the Anglo actors are credited while Hoffman, who is the Cheyenne Warrior, is ignored in the credits. This is clearly a case of institutionalized racism and censorship of the concern being expressed by American Indian fans of Hoffman. His portrayol is so genuine that one forgets he is acting. He creates a character rich with complexities - a fully developed human being. While the vast majority of movies portray American Indians as monosyllabic stoic statues - this man is a man with love, humor, intelligence, confusion, compassion - everything. He is a man. Hoffman should be honored with top billing and yet he is totally ignored. He uplifts everyone else in the film. And yet - his name is withheld from the credits. Why??????????
