Revisionism & the Hollywood NDNs: POny Express and "Little Moon..." Pony Express typoical Stereotyping of NDNs Wars Mentality, Little Moon & Jud McGraw strereotyping Native Women through Non-native actess Stephanie Powers acting against A Young James Caan. I was thinking last night as I was utlizing the old film notion of Re-photography, video timeshifting about the Hollywood Hallucination and the aftermath of the historical real, the spectacle real, and the erotic real> Affects when one looked at the Missing Women Phenomenon, the old BC Inquiry and the on-going MW inquiry how the Little Moon film played a small part in how patriarchy viewed Indigneous Women, I will upload a video clip from that film soon, There is one scene where a man sneaks up on the fake Natiev woman and attacks here as he states he watched her in town, thought about here in town .. something to that effect. Nevertheless, how women were objectified in hollywood film is a true given, but moreso for our indgenous lifegivers, who euro-centric patriarchy abused indigenous women in the past and still in the present. Revisionism , today, My after-thought from my first corporation "Native Revisionist Creations, Inc. 1992- 1997, the original Literacy Manufacturing Company founded by a young Inter-disciplinary Artist of the day! I suggest to read Ward Churchill's essay on the film Smoke Signal with my friend and colleague Evan Adam. Smoke SIgnal, Sherman Alexie brillant film utilizing a unique perspective of aborigianl storytelloing in film, a unique revisionisim of how Hollywood represents the Native person. :-) smile emoticon
