Cheif dan george was my great granduncle from my grandmothers side of the family. It is nice to see all the complements. So thank you all for your kind words. Im sure he would have like it. And here is a little fun fact that i learned. It was his brother henry george, my great grandfather that was actually chief and he almost became famous but didn't want to give up on being chief so passed the opportunity on to his brother dan. And thank you for uploading this to youtube
Welcome Gabe, lovely to hear from you. Perhaps your grand father was more concerned with being on the ground for your people, rather than up on the screen? In my universal spirituality God the Father is transcendent and God the Mother is immanent. I feel for your people. You might like to try a 5 minute yoga meditation with me on th-cam.com/video/3YbnGc9nVeU/w-d-xo.html
"Take care of my Son, see that he doesn't go crazy." One of the hundreds of "Smiles" this great movie has brought me. Soar with the Eagles Chief Dan George.
This is one of the best movies ever made I'm so glad that I can still watch it and every time I do I enjoy it more... Old Lodge Skin is just so wonderful and wise the Indians had it right age is to be respected and revered... And cherished as one of our greatest resources
I could listen to Chief Dan George's voice for hours. Can you imagine the stories he must have told? That soft yet firm voice could recall the past. A simpler time, before the madness poisoned the Earth.
Chief Dan George's 'death' speech is up there among the best. "Thank you for my victories, and my defeats"... if only politicians had the same humility and dignity. One of the best movies ever made.
@@redtobertshateshandles let the humiliation come on their loyalists and lobbyists like a tsunami after a great storm. Let their gold be given back to the people by building strong foundations to social programs. programs that will make us stronger, the will take the poor man and turn him into the working man, and the working man into the owner of the business they gave their time too.
@@redtobertshateshandleslol, all people alive today have abundant food, comfortable affordable shelter, transportation, (including horses) communication, education, medical answers, and economic opportunities / free markets thanks 🙏 to who?
I've just watched this wonderful film again (on yt) after a few decades, and Chief Dan is absolutely superb in it. No wonder he was nominated for an Oscar!
Chief Dan George stole every scene in every film that he appeared in. He didn't use any brash tactics but was humble in spirit and wise in words. I often listen to his poems in times That I need grounding. It was no mistake that he became an actor, it was a calling.
I accidentally came across this on youtube but anyways this speech by the Chief reminds me of a similar prayer I cried out about a year ago when thinking Covid was going to take my life, It may still take me but I give God the glory even if I die....
I just watched this film again (after a very long time, maybe twenty to thirty years) and Chief Dan George's performance completely blew me away - a performance of such immense humility, depth and wit.
Best line comes right after this clip. "Well, Little Big Man. Sometimes the magic works. Sometimes it doesn't" That has been a guiding thought for my entire life.
I watch this masterpiece on a yearly basis.....my father introduced it to me back in the late 70's. I wish more people knew about it. Awesome movie......
"A world without human beings has no center to it." Some of the most meaningful words in cinema are from Old Lodge Skin. I am forever thankful for his wisdom & heart.
It would've been such an honor to meet someone like Chief Dan George. All I can do is greatly appreciate his the incredible presence he brings to his acting. Love you Chief Dan George
I have sorrow in my heart for the American Indians. Their beautiful and vast land was ruthlessly stolen from them by what is now the Government. But following that merciless aqusition, the hunger for conquest just continued on a larger scale. I am 67 years old, and for my entire life, America has always been at war somewhere on the planet. That statement speaks for it's self about the land that I call my home, as well as population within.
Dear Frank, how can we not be bereft at the treatment of the American Indians? And how can such a ruthless, cruel and materialistic culture supplant them? I can only trust that a higher guiding Hand is playing out this great drama in the service of a evolutionary teleology
Yeah and if we instead would have adopted THEIR culture instead of the other way around, im convinced we would still be heading the right direction. So so sad. :(
That's a great line! I would have let the whole scene run through because I also like the part at the end. "But, of course, she's lying." "Of course, Grandfather."
Chief Dan George had another great line earlier in the film when Dustin Hoffman told him about how Custer had fought in the war of the white men to free the black man (the Civil War), and George said: "Oh yes, I've heard about them, the black white men."
A wonderful actor who I've enjoyed in every movie he is in. I am sure he was as wonderful and charming in person as he was in the movies Rest In Peace Chief Dan George I am hoping to meet you when I cross over into the Here After. I want to hear your voice and the wonderful way you tell stories.
When I first saw this movie I was too young to understand what it was about ,any meaning. It took 20 years before a late night cable showing ,and it hit home fast. Dan George , Chief , honest man, gentle man, and from all accounts, a fantastic story teller. I would have loved to meet him.
......at 12...I remember...this Great man... tagught me how..to be invisible..now I use the tool given...56 now...thank you for my defeats and victories...🐺🖤🥰😔🖤😔😔
A great movie scene. I have learned more about the real Chief Dan George since I watched it. If we can see the world as he did, and if we can act accordingly...we might not yet be lost.
I do love this scene, this speech. But my favorite is a little earlier in the film: "There is an endless supply of White Man. But there always has been a limited number of Human Beings."
Great timing and rhythm and a great spokesperson and ambassador for his people . I first watched him on a campy but cool 1980s Canadian tv show called the "Beachcombers. "
🇨🇦 Hi, the first movie I can remember seeing is “Little Big Man” (I was born in 1964 in Vancouver B.C.) my mom worked at YVR back in 1979, & when I & my stepdad went to pick her up from work one day, she brought out a blind “Chief Dan George” & we gave him a ride home too North Vancouver. He left his White Cowboy Hat with us, I think it’s still is in my Moms Trunk. Oh and he had A couple of cocktails in him, witch, him ,made EXTRA ADORABLE! !!!! , I at 11 years old, knew I Was experiencing HISTORY. Please watch Netflix “ The West” just too see HOW REMARKABLE HIS PEOPLE ARE!!!!!!!!!!🇨🇦
A half century on 'we' (for I can only speak for myself as an non-Indigenous ally of aboriginal peoples) still reel at what the magnificent presence of Geswanouth Slahoot (Chief Dan George) of the səl̓ilwətaɁɬ [Tsleil-Waututh Nation] has given to us, both then - as a highly present, revered, and painfully honest actor and advocate, and now. We are fortunate to have his gifts in their several forms (films, recordings, oral stories) to grace and humble us yet.
This movie is great! I read the book too. It kind of reminds me of Forrest Gump a little bit the way that Jack Crabb just travels through the west and runs into all these historic celebrities and adventures. But every scene that Chief Dan was in he stole. He was the real lovable grandfather that just couldn't understand why everything around him was changing so fast but still had an optimistic attitude. The kids today would call him a boomer. Great character. The scene when he gave up on dying because it started raining on him is profound. Everyone wants an easy, honorable, and comfortable death and yet the rain chased him inside. That always makes me laugh. Here is a guy who fought many battles and a little rain put him off. As a military veteran I can tell you getting rained on will change your attitude in a second. I like how Jack always entertained his grandfather ideas, visions, and feelings. That's love and respect. My friends and I, after a long time apart, always say to each other when we get together "seeing you again makes my heart soar like a hawk. Let's smoke." One of my favorite movies. Thank God they haven't tried to reboot it. I think even back then it got the message across.
I've always wondered how old Old Lodge Skins was in the movie? I know Chief Dan George was 70-71 when this came out. Easily my favorite Western of all time.
The expression on Snake Woman’s face when he leaves bring tears to my old eyes…it’s totally realizing she will probably never see him on this side again 😢😢😢
My family once met Chief Dan George in Terrace, BC during the 70s. My grandfather was a carpenter, so I think it must have had something to do with that. By all accounts, a very nice and wise man.
I'm 32yrs old and chief looks like my grandfather. im native though mixed I'm proud of my people. I stand by my grandfather and what he taught me throughout life. and I believe our road is coming to an end
@Owna Mate really.. Well funny thing is This late great Actor/former REAL Chief looked like MY Pops also! Heh heh heh. Yes its true as time marches on All RedNative people can do is try to pass. I live in in a different state l grew up in, so sadly l & a few Neighbors around me are Urban Natives. One time l actually forgot my Identity, until a Local News covered the Governor at the Huge Native Gathering, They had a honor song& dance for him. Now if l would have showed !! Kidding. Good luck and well stated. Good day.
As a kid from the 60s so many movies and TV shows showed me Injun bad, white man good. Until I saw this film. It totally changed my view on US history.
What's really great, given when it was made, is that it probably attracted an audience who came for the cowboys & Indians,... and ended up getting a wonderful life lesson in the bargain.
Read the book first and it is twice s good as the film. But I understand a movie has to compress things into 2 hours or so. Having said that it's a first rate movie, absolutely loved it - but if you have the time read the book!
Man, I'd love to esp since the book didn't tack on the obligatory Hollywood "happy ending" ("Sometimes the magic works....") The chief's death is necessary to the story as it represents the "death" of their culture & way of life. Which, it turns out, is what the whole story was about after all....
motoman2WH3, the director says he wanted to leave it open ended, and that not only were they dying, but that they were forced to live through it. Gotta get the book one day.
...lousiest fake Hollywood happy ending ever. This whole wild tale turns out to be about the decline & fall of the Native Americans' way of life. The chief represented this arc, from the early migration of white settlers when he ruled his tribe, to the eventual end of his culture as he has become old & frail. It took me forever (and many TV viewings of this movie) to finally get that, and when I did, this ending became enraging.
Lol!!! For the ones that have not seen this movie....I ain't being disrespectful in any way but all his wise words said and done then to get rained on was the best laugh ever. Am I still in this world? Hahaha I was afraid of that. . . The earliest I've seen in a movie of Rez humor!!!
My favorite movie of all time Dustin Hoffman was so unbelievable in this film showed what a great actor he really is played almost five parts for the same man and it showed how American Indians in the first Western are human beings and their culture it's my favorite movie I have Dustin Hoffman's autograph on the picture where he's a drunk before Buffalo Bill Cody asks him to do the favor
"Am I still in this world? ... I was afraid of that." Such a Wise Man
Sometimes the magic works, sometimes it doesn’t
😂😂😂😂
It wasent a good day to die after all :( mybe next week wil be a good day ^_^

He is simply saying his lines that someone else wrote
Just saying it but selling it is the Art to acting
Just saying Charlie
Theres a vid on YT where he prays in both his language and in English.
As a traditional regalia artist, the authenticity of his clothing is amazing to look at. 🧐🤩
Inspired.
as I turn 65 I have thought back on all the great movies I have seen... and this is one o the best.
It sure is. One of my top 10 favorites of all time.

I agree, and everyone I know who's seen it says the same

Best line comes right after this clip. "Well, Little Big Man. Sometimes the magic works. Sometimes it doesn't" That has been a guiding thought for my entire life.
A world without human beings has no Center in it

There is a pain between my ears.
I watch this masterpiece on a yearly basis.....my father introduced it to me back in the late 70's. I wish more people knew about it. Awesome movie......

Wishing every a happy Indigenous day, from Canada. Peace and love.
wow - a power house - we were blessed to have him in our midst
It sure is. One of my top 10 favorites of all time.
Dan George was a good actor, he started late in life but he made the best.

@@PaulKeetley They were pretty materialistic themselves. Kinda why the fur trade was a thing to begin with.
@@rangergxi You define materialism through a white mans eyes, not a human beings eyes.
Such a joyful scene, however, the saddest thing about this movie is that George wasn't acting, at all. :(
His wife in the scene, looks as if her husband really is going off to die. (But she is a liar, like all of the horse women!)
I know
That's why she's such a good actress.
Yep, exactly.
Love Dan. A big influence upon my humble existence. He prays better than me too. Love and peace from Ute land.
A beautiful soul of a man may his ancestors care to him in the next life
How can you leave out the point of the scene and one of the best lines
in all moviedom, "Sometimes the magic works, and sometimes it doesn't"?
Yes agreed, It was not there for me to edit originally
OMG! It is the best and most famous line I remember from the movie!
"Ric Speed"? Sounds like you're the one who tried to service the squaw before she typed in your/HER sad lines.
That's a great line! I would have let the whole scene run through because I also like the part at the end.
"But, of course, she's lying."

Great one . History , Drama, Comedy . I cannot understand why it never comes on TV anymore
Because the last thing Americans want to see is women and infants getting murdered for their lands?

I guess death wanted to fight.
You learn in this movie it's something special to be a human being the natives know this.
A half century on 'we' (for I can only speak for myself as an non-Indigenous ally of aboriginal peoples) still reel at what the magnificent presence of Geswanouth Slahoot (Chief Dan George) of the səl̓ilwətaɁɬ [Tsleil-Waututh Nation] has given to us, both then - as a highly present, revered, and painfully honest actor and advocate, and now. We are fortunate to have his gifts in their several forms (films, recordings, oral stories) to grace and humble us yet.

i totally forgot this timeless classic super movie, little big man
He was superb in The Outlaw Josey Wales
This is a great movie. Because it has cowboys and Indians, it shares some truth, and it offers some wonderful philosophy.
What's really great, given when it was made, is that it probably attracted an audience who came for the cowboys & Indians,... and ended up getting a wonderful life lesson in the bargain.
One thing they don't tell you bout real life. It wasn't "Cowboys and Indians" it was Indians and Calvary.
This is 1150% true how we think in Iroquois country. Dan George is beyond a legend.

My favorite movie of all time Dustin Hoffman was so unbelievable in this film showed what a great actor he really is played almost five parts for the same man and it showed how American Indians in the first Western are human beings and their culture it's my favorite movie I have Dustin Hoffman's autograph on the picture where he's a drunk before Buffalo Bill Cody asks him to do the favor
Such a great movie. So much of it taken from the classic "Black Elk Speaks"
