@@sumsar0125 CO2 is also the problem. Plants can only consume so much CO2. They also have to get access to it. If it's at 50,000 feet, they can't metabolize it, CORRECT?!
Well, actually, *most* films are independently-made pieces of trash; the product-movies I guess you're referring to are the big-budget extravaganzas that are so mind-numbingly similar in look and feel. All that droopy, dopey CGI looks EXACTLY the SAME these days. Oh, also? It's more than a little ironic that this video is, _absolutely,_ a COMMERCIAL. For a PRODUCT. 20th Century Fox,™ man.
'If you're a True and dedicated FILM MAKER who LOVE films to the core, No one can stop you making an outstanding film' This is what I felt after watching THE REVENANT.
@@KolevProductions at least that's what I thought. I think they may have moved around and shot in different locations I haven't finished the documentary yet
After living my life outdoors, most of it at 12,000 feet, year round winter and summer, I experienced first hand and it is sad to see the vast majority of people missing these amazing life lessons and experiences found only in remote wilderness and alone in deep solitude. The silence out there is deafening.
Alejandro González Iñárritu is a genius mastermind in the art of film. The Revenant is an extremely amazing film. Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy are an excellent on screen team.
The gorgeous location, the cinematography, the camera work, the special effects, the make up, the actors, the histroy, the music, this is just amazing!
+Senior Adrian Although that "The views and opinions expressed in this material are those of the presents and do not reflect the official policy of 20th Centruy Fox Corporation or its related affiliates" kinda soured it at the end lol
One of the best movies ever made in my opinion. The realism of it is jaw dropping. Hardy and DiCaprio deserve every award possible x2 for their performances. Including the cast and whole crew.
so important to hear the voices of these first nation's communities who have suffered in silence for so long.. what an incredible platform for such a critical issue. this is what film making is all about.
It shows the opening scene with two hunters walking through a forest engulfed by cold shallow running water. Who in their right mind hunts in such an spot?
This is one of the best documentaries I've seen attached directly to a motion picture, it's the perfect documentary to have as a companion to the film, they're perfect together.
I had to watch this movie several times in the theater. The first two times I couldn't follow the story line because I couldn't get over watching each scene and the way it was captured knowing 99% of it was shot using natural light. Every scene had me scanning the screen from side to side to take in every single inch of light and how it was falling on the subjects and the scene itself. Just amazing.
Man, I gotta say this. I didn't usually cry at the movies, but the young child at the end of documentary tears me apart. His line "I want them to pick a favourite spot" kills me. Emotionally and physically. And i don't know why. Love and respect each other.
The movie was not a "movie", it was an "experience". People tell me they don't like going to the theater and just wait for the DVD...this is once in a lifetime experience...go SEE IT IN THEATHERS!!! Imax if possible... is not just about the bear... is a symphony of music, sounds, camerawork, images, acting.... I was left speechless
I can understand why you would be...(left speechless) I actually actually watched this twice back to back and I only just watched the Revenant movie a week ago for the first time and it's January/2020 I would say that I'm a little behind the times lol......Cheers
I'm Canadian and I saw this movie and it was riveting , and had me on the edge of my seat ,, just reminded me of how hard it can be to live in the wilderness ,, that movie was amazing ,, I tip my hat off to all those involved in that movie ,, I will never forget it ,, I hope you are all well, Thank you for this ,
This is art to me. Not a movie. I never thought I would use such a phrase as I hate reading such cheese on youtube regarding movies. But this really did spark all different kinds of emotions while viewing this in the cinema.
+19karl16 Lots of people working on this movie have earned Bachelors/Masters of Fine Arts degrees in acting, stage managing, directing, etc! All aspects of filmmaking are art :)
It's just so inspiring to see true artists- in this case, the filmmakers and actors, speak so passionately about their craft. And this is true art done in the highest level imaginable.
This documentary goes far beyond the making of "The Revenant." Iñárritu has brought the critical issues of environmental (planetary, even) degradation and of capitalism's amoral exploitation of Nature and Native Peoples into public awareness. He has done this with enormous sensitivity, cinematic beauty and with a desire to reconnect us to our deepest human values, now threatened by institutionalized ignorance of things that really matter. This short film ends with these words: "Climate action is the greatest moral imperative of our generation."
+Noe Berengena Both _The Revenant_ and this making-of are certainly very well made, but spare a thought for what they actually represent. Iñárritu makes the hero of his film a friend of native Americans, but the real Hugh Glass wasn't married to an Indian woman and didn't have a son. Instead, the real Hugh Glass participated in the fur trade like the rest of them with all the violence and environmental destruction that entailed. In short, the film washes him clean of any connection to capitalism's amoral exploitation of nature and native peoples. Despite this, the making-of goes on to package the whole thing as highlighting this very issue. And with that piece of mental gymnastics and some healthy box office figures, capitalism has once again absorbed its own critique.
+cavalrycome -- Thank you for taking the time to write that, and doing it without a personal attack. It's disheartening to learn those hard facts about Glass. We know Leonardo is an environmental advocate, so his conflation with Glass muddies the waters. For us with the best intentions to live responsibly it is increasingly difficult to remain free of some connection to the big problems.
***** It's clear why they changed the details of his life. The film makers wanted people to see their film, and the reality of his life happens to be unpalatable to modern audiences. A large section of the audience wouldn't side with a hero who viewed native Americans in the way that frontiersmen generally did at the time. They wouldn't side with a hero who stood by and watched a woman being raped either, and despite his occupation as a fur trapper, they wouldn't want to actually see him kill an animal for sport or to make a hat, even if they'd accept it in self defense or for food. In short, they want to see an anachronistic hero who inexplicably possesses modern moral standards. If it was just about entertainment, none of this would matter, but not everyone who watches the film will know where it did and didn't depart from the truth, and so there will be viewers who leave the cinema admiring the real Glass, the man who wasn't a friend of native Americans or nature, and who didn't trek through any snow or mountainous terrain. It's not quite as bad as admiring Christopher Columbus, but it's in that direction.
I've just come back from cinema... Seen this film in 4K on big 11 x 4m screen. It was breathtaking. Every scene was thoroughly made. Composition, colour grading, dynamic range, even lens flares was pleasant to watch. Long one shot scenes, slow cut, stunning performance... Finally, I'm glad for visiting cinema!
Beautiful and insightful documentary about this incredible film. I've seen The Revenant 3 times in theaters now, and every time it gets better and better. The cinematography is incredible, and everything that went into the making of the movie, truly makes it stand alone. I am truly inspired by works of art like that of this film. It deserves every award this year.
What a reality check this documentary has made. Myself, 1/2 NA, I can now see how appreciative the NA way of fighting for what they have left to fight for. This is a reality check and should be seen by all who do appreciate Mother Earth and respect her. This is only one Earth we live on and to try to salvage what is left of our lands. Amen and God Bless. TY for producing this.
The Story of Starlight and his son was beautiful and intriguing. The man made a deal with mother nature and she forgave whatever transgressions that the man made. Such a deep understanding of nature can only be acquired with a mutual understanding. Its the oldest form of handshake there is
Breathtaking filmmaking. This documentary itself is just that & awakening to the lands history & today's climate issues. I love getting the chance to see a glimpse of what it was like on set & the process of bringing this film to life. All the work and heart this film embodies... Speechless. I admire the passion Alejandro has for his work and to illuminate the human condition in all his films.
36:04 first off it starts with this scene and doesn't say it's Calgary but kind of implys since that's what he starts talking about. I can tell you that is not the skyline of Calgary. Not even close. Then he starts talking about how the native Calgarians have never seen weather like this before. I can tell you as a born and raised Calgarian that this is a completely false statment. Even my father was born here and his father moved here when he was 3 years old. We have always had this winter phemonen called a Chinook that happens sometimes up to 10 times a winter. You are being feed intentional misinformation for political purpose. It's really kind of gross they would do this. Clean air water and healthy ecosystems are extreamly important to the well-being of the planet. But don't blaitently lie to the public. Makes me wonder what the agenda is or what they have to gain from it.
You can learn even more by reading the book the movie is based on, and other accounts of Hugh Glass' journey and story. I read the book recently and it was really good.
Der JaSager It's the small things really like the clothing differences between the RE tribes and the tribes trading with the Americans, also the many gun types you don't see on your first viewing, there's many more subtle things spotted throughout that if you're interested in that type of thing can be educational
What an incredible film and achievement in the art of filmmaking. This documentary is a further eye-opener to the already worrisome issues our planet is facing.
+kenneth merced calo Yep. These people have suddenly forgotten that they are making a MOVIE with millions of dollars at their disposal. They act like they were really living it! Not even CLOSE.
As someone who once lived for a short while with First Nations people in Canada I can only commend this documentary and the spirit it captures. It certainly does not cover everything and is made on the back of the profitable Holywood movie 'The Revenant', but I am so glad it has been made and packaged with the movie for retail so that more people may engage with at least some of the issues surrounding the collective experiences of an incredible First People. One to watch!
This film was stunning on the big screen. The blend of hand-held camera work and intimate angles contrasted with vast landscapes was truly captivating. Film, as an art, is so centered in craftsmanship that it evokes a unique brand of wonder. We are simultaneously locked in the story while, like reacting to a magician, confused as to how it is possible.
At this point I don't think winning an Oscar makes any difference for Leonardo, whose ability to move and captivate an audience is extremely rare, poignant, and stunning.
A Soulful movie! This movie really impacted my life in many ways. Sadly i only knew about this movie very late and i watched it in my laptop. How i wish i watched this movie in the theatre. The Greatest film i watched till date. Phenomenal Direction and hats off to Leonardo. Respect!
The word beautiful is sorta subjective and it gets thrown around a lot so I try to reserve it for when it’s truly deserved. This movie is probably the most beautiful film I’ve ever watched. It’s been a couple years since it came out and it’s still at the top of my list of cinematography.
Finally! A film that shows Native Amercans as fierce formidable warriors and not just slaughter people on a field. TRUELY about the wrestling of a man's spirit and flesh in the elements. The. best role of DiCaprio's career!💝🐰😄😂
The geography is breathtaking. I do appreciate the fact that the person who invested their time, money and effort trying to document a worthy message. The struggle, the loss, the bonds .....I have said before the only thing that would have made this any better was having a native do the narrative though I am grateful that someone like Alejandro cared enough to revisit history. I see the struggle and say "Their wound was my wound". It's a proud time to offer your own contribution thru hard work and merit to give credit back to those who had it stolen from them. I met a young boy once on a bus that was native and he was angry that so much had been taken from his people and I told him to be the one to give the credit and recognition back to His people thru his own effort and merit thru his life. That he could be the difference he felt was not available. You have to acknowledge the contributions the natives contribute thru genetic predisposition alone. Those skills can not be taught, these are inherited traits in a blood line. I think this is the wound that was inflicted thru cultural differences and the denial that became their barrier. It's not enough to give back something after you caused the suffering of people thru ignorance and indifference.
If anyone is interested here is the soundtrack to this documentary. I knew I heard it somewhere and it turns out I follow the Composer who made this music. I hope you all enjoy soundcloud.com/a-taylor
The Best Documentary: Whenever I felt down, I will play this video and start working on my stuff like planning/brainstorming/etc.. It’s peaceful to watch and has lots of real life strength in it. Beautiful content with top standard quality. Above all it carries lots of truth in it…
just watched it on nat geo. such an awesome and spiritual doc. ive always respected the natives in the way they live and love nature, such passion, no words for it. lets you see the world and mankind in another perspective !
Thank you for making this documentary. Until now I haven't actually realized how important it is for the viewers to understand the message that the movie sends out. This whole story is just so amazing, and inspiring...
+Jose G Andrade Fitzgerald was kinda pragmatic when it comes right down to it and he was probably made more cruel and selfish by what happened to him (scalping). that doesn't defend some of his actions of course, but he is not just evil.
+Jose G Andrade Actually Glass did not kill Fitzgerald in away way. He really forgives him because he was on his first expedition and inexperience. Fitgerald was 23 at the time it happens. Fitgerald is the one mostly responsible for the legend of Glass survives today.
Remember about the Chinook winds in Canada, this might have been one of the reasons they left so quickly, I recall it being -40Celcius one day and then +18Celcius for about a week a and a half or so, very common event there...then things go back to way below freezing, lived there for 7 years or so in between Calgary and Edmonton....very cold and harsh, this movie actually does it justice. GJ team :)
'I don't think we'll understand until we kill every last animal, we eat the last fish, we cut the last tree - then we'll understand that we are not able to eat money.' - Alejandro G. Iñárritu
What a gorgeous piece. I loved hearing from the native american actors and their position on the film, and on their lands. Really moving stuff. This is a masterpiece on it's own, the Revenant was incredible. Great cinematography, amazing concept, and A+ acting from everyone involved.
Great documentary ! The Revenant is a real masterpiece and the documentary about the spirit, the making of of the movie is so interesting ! I can't wait to have the movie at home and watching all the extras ! I hope this documentary will be in the extras
Truly amazing work here by all. I use to live ten miles from indian lake about 15 miles from the ute reservation pass thesse oil guys. Every day and i see the indian way just slowly slip away deep respects for. All and there way of life i hope we all wake UP one day before its to late ty🦋✌🌌💫
Just because someone says you’re going in the wrong direction doesn’t mean it is a bad thing, only that you are headed in right direction. Follow your dreams and never look back.
THIS MOVIE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING .....EVERYTHING FROM THE HAUNTING MUSIC (SCORE)....THE BEAR ATTACK ...DI CAPRIOS PERFORMANCE ....THE WHOLE PRODUCTION WAS INCREDIBLE .....
+Mike Jenkins Nope. Also, acting like they were really living it, when in fact they had millions of dollars of the most modern of conveniences at their fingertips in these "hard, remote locations" is arrogant and ridiculous.
Give the Oscar back then??...that's like saying surgeons are ordinary because they use high tech instruments to perform 12 hour operations on babies with heart defects...silly girl!!
I will never forget my first hunting experience in northern BC, camped 30 K from the nearest paved road with two friends. Fresh signs of grizzly and timber wolf were everywhere. I would go alone, walking 5-10 K from camp. It was the most incredible experience being alone out there. I was totally responsible and accountable for whatever I did or didn’t do in a way you will never know in civilized circumstance. That I was part of the food chain hit me like an avalanche. I felt totally at risk and totally alive at the same time. PS...Hawk has a wonderful voice.
Oh man, *FINALLY* a documentary that has an awareness and respect for both the filmmaking process and the subject matter itself, particularly for this movie. I'm not a native, I've never been to the states, I haven't even seen the feature yet and I'm still a youngster, but I grow so tired of the dramatized and cliché style of _"behind the scenes"_ insights in most feature films. It's always been obvious to me how inaccurate the indigenous and first nation people are portrayed in movies, Clay Landry at 17:40 also put it perfectly about how we mistakenly tend to perceive ourselves in history. I appreciate Alejandro and his approach very much now, I just wish all directors were like this and did some research, showed some care and put more thought and objectivity to their documentaries. Such a great video, thanks a lot!
This movie is a reminder, nature is not just a commodity to enjoy or destroy, it is a living entity, for those who surrender to its beauty and savagery, they get salvation, rebirth and even freedom.
Bro, That was beautiful.

Everyone who still continues eating animals when there's plenty of plant-based food, is a savage.

+kenneth merced calo Yep. These people have suddenly forgotten that they are making a MOVIE with millions of dollars at their disposal. They act like they were really living it! Not even CLOSE.
Best comment ever
Lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As someone who once lived for a short while with First Nations people in Canada I can only commend this documentary and the spirit it captures. It certainly does not cover everything and is made on the back of the profitable Holywood movie 'The Revenant', but I am so glad it has been made and packaged with the movie for retail so that more people may engage with at least some of the issues surrounding the collective experiences of an incredible First People. One to watch!
This film was stunning on the big screen. The blend of hand-held camera work and intimate angles contrasted with vast landscapes was truly captivating. Film, as an art, is so centered in craftsmanship that it evokes a unique brand of wonder. We are simultaneously locked in the story while, like reacting to a magician, confused as to how it is possible.
Alejandro is a genius! His sensibility is something else.
Super!
Respect Alejandro G. Iñárritu!!!
Great job!..
The Revenant is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen, masterpiece 👏👏👏👏
At this point I don't think winning an Oscar makes any difference for Leonardo, whose ability to move and captivate an audience is extremely rare, poignant, and stunning.
This movie had some of the most naturally gorgeous cinematography ive ever seen.
A Soulful movie! This movie really impacted my life in many ways. Sadly i only knew about this movie very late and i watched it in my laptop. How i wish i watched this movie in the theatre. The Greatest film i watched till date. Phenomenal Direction and hats off to Leonardo. Respect!
The word beautiful is sorta subjective and it gets thrown around a lot so I try to reserve it for when it’s truly deserved. This movie is probably the most beautiful film I’ve ever watched. It’s been a couple years since it came out and it’s still at the top of my list of cinematography.
Finally! A film that shows Native Amercans as fierce formidable warriors and not just slaughter people on a field. TRUELY about the wrestling of a man's spirit and flesh in the elements. The. best role of DiCaprio's career!💝🐰😄😂
Who else had a touching moment in this documentary or the movie?
P.S: Great movie
The geography is breathtaking. I do appreciate the fact that the person who invested their time, money and effort trying to document a worthy message. The struggle, the loss, the bonds .....I have said before the only thing that would have made this any better was having a native do the narrative though I am grateful that someone like Alejandro cared enough to revisit history. I see the struggle and say "Their wound was my wound". It's a proud time to offer your own contribution thru hard work and merit to give credit back to those who had it stolen from them. I met a young boy once on a bus that was native and he was angry that so much had been taken from his people and I told him to be the one to give the credit and recognition back to His people thru his own effort and merit thru his life. That he could be the difference he felt was not available. You have to acknowledge the contributions the natives contribute thru genetic predisposition alone. Those skills can not be taught, these are inherited traits in a blood line. I think this is the wound that was inflicted thru cultural differences and the denial that became their barrier. It's not enough to give back something after you caused the suffering of people thru ignorance and indifference.
If anyone is interested here is the soundtrack to this documentary. I knew I heard it somewhere and it turns out I follow the Composer who made this music. I hope you all enjoy soundcloud.com/a-taylor
+Giovanni Montalvo Thank you for this!
Thank you for this. Moving music.
thank you
His music can be licensed through Musicbed too
+Giovanni Montalvo Giovanni! Nice to see you around buddy. Saw Revenant yesterday, great movie, and this documentary is very striking too.
This film made me cry, it made look at self to know to never give in. And it’s as powerful as interstellar to make me forget
The Revenant is an art piece. And this is an amazing documentary as well.
This movie is unlike any movie today. After I watched it the 1st time, I couldn't stop thinking about it.
oww, this documentary has a beautiful soundtrack
Ppd

OH MY GOD! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU GOOD SAMARITAN OF THE INTERNET!!
You're welcome !
The Best Documentary: Whenever I felt down, I will play this video and start working on my stuff like planning/brainstorming/etc.. It’s peaceful to watch and has lots of real life strength in it. Beautiful content with top standard quality. Above all it carries lots of truth in it…
"I don't consider people who are racist as bad people, I consider them ignorant" Spot on!
Iñarritu is the philosopher of cinema.
@Brad Smith That made no sense, mate. If you are still racist after having "experienced" other races/cultures, then you are still ignorant.
just watched it on nat geo.
such an awesome and spiritual doc.
ive always respected the natives in the way they live and love nature, such passion, no words for it.
lets you see the world and mankind in another perspective !
Thank you for making this documentary. Until now I haven't actually realized how important it is for the viewers to understand the message that the movie sends out. This whole story is just so amazing, and inspiring...
It's a crime that I never ever watched this movie in a cinema hall, really regret this!
Amazing movie!
one of the best movies ive ever seen and incredible documentary
This isn’t just a movie, It's something worth to experience which comes once in a century! ❤️❤️❤️ ✋😎🇧🇩
43 people who dislike this are related to Fitzgerald
Old joke is old
+Jose G Andrade Fitzgerald was kinda pragmatic when it comes right down to it and he was probably made more cruel and selfish by what happened to him (scalping).
that doesn't defend some of his actions of course, but he is not just evil.
+PiCheZvara He is desperate and cold and scared like an elk.
+Jose G Andrade Actually Glass did not kill Fitzgerald in away way. He really forgives him because he was on his first expedition and inexperience. Fitgerald was 23 at the time it happens.
Fitgerald is the one mostly responsible for the legend of Glass survives today.
+Jose G Andrade Are you 12 or what ? That kind of comments is so childish...
the extensive behind the scenes for this film were much wanted! good to see almost 23 thousand like minded viewers in a day having the same interest
i had no idea it took that long. Well worth it
This film/movie was in my opinion..a beautiful historical masterpiece..
I was expecting for a making-of of the movie but it turns out to be something more deeper than that.
Just seen this... I've never seen a more beautiful movie. Insanely beautiful.
Remember about the Chinook winds in Canada, this might have been one of the reasons they left so quickly, I recall it being -40Celcius one day and then +18Celcius for about a week a and a half or so, very common event there...then things go back to way below freezing, lived there for 7 years or so in between Calgary and Edmonton....very cold and harsh, this movie actually does it justice. GJ team :)
Thank you so much 20th Century Fox for this upload & the featurettes of the Revenant.
'I don't think we'll understand until we kill every last animal, we eat the last fish, we cut the last tree - then we'll understand that we are not able to eat money.' - Alejandro G. Iñárritu
preach!
this production is insane, i want to watch this movie so badly, they deserve everything
What a gorgeous piece. I loved hearing from the native american actors and their position on the film, and on their lands. Really moving stuff. This is a masterpiece on it's own, the Revenant was incredible. Great cinematography, amazing concept, and A+ acting from everyone involved.
I’m glad we could hear their voices
Oh you succeed Mr Inarritu… this movie is an epic masterpiece for all generations to come to revel in ❤️ 🏴
Great documentary ! The Revenant is a real masterpiece and the documentary about the spirit, the making of of the movie is so interesting !
I can't wait to have the movie at home and watching all the extras ! I hope this documentary will be in the extras
Truly amazing work here by all. I use to live ten miles from indian lake about 15 miles from the ute reservation pass thesse oil guys. Every day and i see the indian way just slowly slip away deep respects for. All and there way of life i hope we all wake UP one day before its to late ty🦋✌🌌💫
Strong Documentary . Wonderful Movie.
The last scene when Iñárritu stands up and leaves and one is left alone with that image of the waterfall is just... haunting
Wonderful documentary and a wonderful man appreciating wonderful peoples!!! Excellent work!!!
Just because someone says you’re going in the wrong direction
doesn’t mean it is a bad thing, only that you are headed in right direction. Follow your dreams and never look back.
Holy cow! This will be epic, thank you!
THIS MOVIE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING .....EVERYTHING FROM THE HAUNTING MUSIC (SCORE)....THE BEAR ATTACK ...DI CAPRIOS PERFORMANCE ....THE WHOLE PRODUCTION WAS INCREDIBLE .....
"We cannot eat money" sums it all up pretty perfectly
this documentary alone deserves the oscar for best cinematography
Quite possibly the best film director in the world today !!
Agreed!!
+Mike Jenkins Nope. Also, acting like they were really living it, when in fact they had millions of dollars of the most modern of conveniences at their fingertips in these "hard, remote locations" is arrogant and ridiculous.
Give the Oscar back then??...that's like saying surgeons are ordinary because they use high tech instruments to perform 12 hour operations on babies with heart defects...silly girl!!
They had those conveniences. They chose not to utilize them. Which anyone who has read about the film knows.
Yep, exactly right...do some homework before you say something stupid L.H.
I will never forget my first hunting experience in northern BC, camped 30 K from the nearest paved road with two friends. Fresh signs of grizzly and timber wolf were everywhere. I would go alone, walking 5-10 K from camp. It was the most incredible experience being alone out there. I was totally responsible and accountable for whatever I did or didn’t do in a way you will never know in civilized circumstance. That I was part of the food chain hit me like an avalanche. I felt totally at risk and totally alive at the same time.
PS...Hawk has a wonderful voice.
Thank you for this film. And for thr Revenant too!
+Ренат Газизов and for best actor-Leo
The phrase “monumental achievement” is reserved for a film like this.
beautiful
+mpgz92 Biutiful
+MalfreyArts ooooooh. dat reference

Hold up let me make myself tea
+iAmKatniss A spot of tea indeed!
+iAmKatniss Green Tea?
+Gina Cita good way to get arrested dummy
using your words dipshit..lol..give it up moron.
must be like 12..lol
One of the most riveting movies I have seen. Edge of my seat from almost the very beginning.
This is the definition of "beautiful"...
Oh man, *FINALLY* a documentary that has an awareness and respect for both the filmmaking process and the subject matter itself, particularly for this movie. I'm not a native, I've never been to the states, I haven't even seen the feature yet and I'm still a youngster, but I grow so tired of the dramatized and cliché style of _"behind the scenes"_ insights in most feature films. It's always been obvious to me how inaccurate the indigenous and first nation people are portrayed in movies, Clay Landry at 17:40 also put it perfectly about how we mistakenly tend to perceive ourselves in history.
I appreciate Alejandro and his approach very much now, I just wish all directors were like this and did some research, showed some care and put more thought and objectivity to their documentaries. Such a great video, thanks a lot!
finest film ive seen in 40 years
