Title: idea man
Review: When I was 15, I read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee and was stunned. The America I adored, the America I loved acting like Natzis. What captured my thoughts, what stirred my imagination was The Sand Creek Massacre. So, when I talked my friends into seeing Soldier Blue when it was released, I wasn't as surprised as my friends. I knew the history. I knew How We Won the West wasn't as 'clean' as the history books told. Colonel Chivington, the officer responsible was asked why he killed women and children and he replied simply, "nits make lice." Of course, I grew up in suburbia living in lands we took from the Indians and the Mexicans so I was a mixed bag of outrage and bewilderment. I believe in films like Soldier Blue even if they do show America in a bad light. I think it only makes us stronger to hold our faults up to the light than to sweep them under. Pat Tilman anyone???
