Title: Wonderful coming of age film
Review: It's rough growing up in any culture when you're different, especially so in the Cherokees where proving yourself is so critical. And in this story, doing the wrong thing could prove fatal.Hunter (Andrew J. Ferchland as young boy and James Duval as man) is a Cherokee boy with hemophilia. His mother (Jeri Arredondo) wants to shelter him and his Dad (Kevin Anderson) wants to treat him like a regular warrior. That includes learning to hunt deer.When Hunter accidentally shoots a doe instead of the manliness proving buck, he's earned the insulting name "Doe Boy". As his Grandfather says, "He wanted a story to tell the rest of his life.""Doe Boy" is an independent film, written and produced by Randy Redroad. The filming takes place in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, which is Cherokee country and a beautiful place. Acting, music, scenery are all good. Just a well-told.Rebecca Kyle, August 2008
