Amazing film on so many levels
|
This film was a true find. I had not heard of it before, but I was so pleased to find Dreamkeeper. There have been so many eloquent reviews before me, so I will just add a few things.
This film will appeal to many people with varied interests:
Fantasy film audiences will enjoy the legends and well-done special effects, bringing to life stories that rival the great tales of ancient Europe or the Middle East.
Those who want to see a film that portrays native peoples in a positive, affirming way will enjoy this. Dreamkeeper tries to be honest about modern reality as well as giving the viewer an appreciation of past traditions and their relevance to today.
I love the bonus features that the DVD medium provides. I enjoyed the production featurette and the director's audio commentary track. I would have liked to have either a second audio commentary from the author, John Fusco, or have him included in the commentary track with the director. I wanted to know more about how Fusco felt about the story that he wrote and the film, actors, etc. This was a missed opportunity.
Also, a widescreen presentation (instead of full screen) would have been preferable, and subtitles. How about a new, director's cut version with some more goodies and deleted scenes?
Finally, I think this is a film that has a long future ahead of it, as it gets discovered by more people. Because it was a made-for-cable TV miniseries, it did not get those important reviews from the theatrical release film critics, or the festival circuit exposure. As a result, it will take longer for this enduring work to find its place in the film world. |
