: Rebecca,
: GREAT about your crutches!!! (Do you have a walking cast?)
: Was Tantoo also in a movie "War Party"? I think it was her; but its been awhile since I saw it. This a contempory, although on a resveration, movie.

I believe that Tantoo also had a small part in the movie Silent
Tongue. For anyone who has not seen it--it was also a very good
movie (Native American theme). It played in the art house movie theaters around here.
It was a good story and was also the last movie that River Pheonix was in before he died. Shiela Toussey also plays in it. She was the star of Grand Avenue. You can rent it on video in our
area but I don't know if it is carried throughout the U.S.
Again, Happy 4th.
