: : : Yes, Donna the ending was great. Adam Beach gave a wonderful, sensitive performance! His acting was impressive compared to SQUANTO....
: : : BTW Penny told me that a soundtrack for SMOKE SIGNALS is out as well. I sure hope I can find it here in Canada. I'd love to listen to "John Wayne's Teeth " again.My husband and I had a good laugh!

: : : Watch out for another movie by the same author/script writer (Sherman Alexie). I read in the paper that INDIAN KILLER was being filmed.

: : : Rebecca

: : Agree with both of you, Rebecca and Donna. Rebecca, if you can't find the soundtrack, let me know, I've got it and could send you a copy. We've bought it mostly for the "teeth song" and the song by Ulali, but everything else on it is good too.
: : About "Indian Killer", I've read that Evan Adams (Thomas in 'Smoke Signals') is playing a psychopath killer in that movie. That should be interesting!
: : Petra

: OH, NO! Please don't tell me that Evan Adams is playing the indian killer in "Indian Killer"! I'm reading it at the moment (thanks to Amazon.com...) and I quote here from page 23: " He was now six feet and six inches tall and heavily muscled..." That doesn't sound like Evan Adams to me! Reading along I was kind of portraying a certain mr. Schweig playing the part....
: Gosh, I'm all disappointed now!!!

Hi Everyone,

The Soundtrack to "Smoke Signals" is available at cdnow.com. They have both the tape and the CD. Good luck in your search. I can't wait until some more good movies with "Native American" themes are released. I have to agree, it would be hard to imagine Evan Adams as a "killer". Maybe someone got it wrong.

All the best,

Ayesha
