Hi Rebecca

It is so great to find kindred spirits or whatever one wishes
to name friends along the path who share the same interests. I
actually bought the video version of "Silent Tongue" and show it
from time to time to friends who did not even know it extisted.
I wish there were more films being produced along these lines.

If so, it would give so many Native actors a chance to work.

The movie "Smoke Signals" is a great acheivement for actor Adam
Beach. I feel that his performance was the best of his career. It is also a great acheivement for the director. I saw his short film "Tenacity" at the Native American Film Festival in San Francisco 3 years ago. I feel he deserves an award for his first major work in film as a director. I really feel thathe got the best possible performances from most of the actors in the film. I would love some feedback as most of the folks who visit this board see the film.

Looking forward to future discourses on the film.
