REZ BOMB by Steven Lewis Simpson
It never fails that when a new Native American movie comes out we have to wait for months to actually see it. Luckily you can buy this now. But still....
When will it ever be possible that a Native American movie will be debuted (like Dances with Wolves) with the rest of the movies that hit the mainstream theaters? Like, who do I have to contact to complain about this to??
ALSO, Two Words! Russel Means. American Indian living legend. I start to pant when I think about him and the work he's done. I must've read 'Where white men fear to tread' like five times.
I have a thing for these early american indian civil rights leaders. Vine Deloria Jr., Floyd Red Crow Westerman, and John Trudell, another living breathing institution. Not a groupie 'thing' like I wanna throw my panties at you when I see you. Just a deep respect and admiration for what they endured so the Native Americans of today can have a better life.
BUT THE MOVIE!!! Its always great to see a new native movie. Especially when you cast beautiful (Tamara Feldman of Gossip Girl, IMBD says shes Cherokee) native people in it. And who doesn't like a compelling, gripping love story.
Rez Bomb may still be doing a screening tour so check @StevenLewisSimpson on Twitter for updates.
