: Rebecca,
: Sorry about the delay in answering; War Party is a 1989 movie about the reenactment of a battle between the Blackfoot Indian Tribe and the US Calvery; the time is the "present" now adays; the "young ones" get together for this reeactment; however; one of the "white young ones" actually loads his gun to make a real battle instead of a reenactment.
: Someone told me of this film a long time ago, in a place .....actually,
: I saw it so long ago; it started out very interesting; with the Indian youth on the reservation, dealing with current problems, getting ready for this reenactment and thier feelings about it, etc. (This is where I thought Tantoo is the mom of one of the youths)but as the movie unfolds; what was a very interesting idea becomes a rather pathetic cowboys and Indians stuff.
: As I rented it out of a drug store; might not be still around.

: (who is very glad you are off crutches, Rebecca,
: My hope to you for a complete recovery without cast and no pain in the toes!!!)
Hi Jo,
Thanks for the info. I will definitely rent it!
Well, I had no pain in my toes, but my ankle gave me a lot of trouble. Apparently I had sprained it as well and due to the trauma it became VERY immobile...How is your ankle? ( I hope I didn't get you mixed up with somebody else....)And how are the rest of our wounded?
