Dances with wolves

At the beginning of the film, the soldiers reluctantly put on their combat boots, and when the two armies faced each other, they charged into battle with the mentality of seeking death. Do you remember the brave Mel Gibson in "Braveheart"? Even the soundtrack of the film reminded me several times of this magnificent war epic.
Kevin Costner, who went to the frontier alone, came to this uncivilized land, was free and enjoyed it, did you remember the peerless independent cowboy in "The Horse Whisperer", "The Covered Bridge" The maverick photographer in "Last Dreams", and the uninhibited Brad Pitt in "The Burning Years"? Their temperaments are so similar, nothing can bind them, it seems that only love will become the fetters in their lives.
Two socks, the wolf who always guarded Kevin Costner, was shot and fell to the ground at last. Kevin Costner resisted with all his strength. At this moment, the wolf is him, he is the wolf. The wolf totem seems to flash in the sky again, which is sad.
No matter how vast the land is, it can’t escape the ruthless trampling of advanced human iron cavalry, no matter how beautiful the creatures can escape the brutal killing of advanced human bullets, and no matter how simple and primitive human races are, they can’t live in peace in the world, and they will never be found again after repeated migration. to a piece of pure land that belongs to them. He was once a member of the advanced human beings, and he left them for too long, and all that was revealed in his bones was incompatible with them.
I haven't seen such an atmospheric movie for a long time, just like the feeling of watching "Braveheart" and "The Years of Burning Love" at that time, it is moving and lingering in my mind for a long time. Only by writing down can I express my feelings.
What impressed Kevin Costner the most was "The Perfect World" starring him and directed by Clint Eastwood, and this "Dances with Wolves" directed and acted by him in 1990 is better than "Dancing With Wolves". The Perfect World is still three years away. For nearly 4 hours, people who have watched the film longer than "The Godfather" have enjoyed it with relish, and the aftertaste is endless!

    A four-hour movie. It's not just shocking or moving. When one civilization is about to swallow another, when the wall is about to crush the egg, I always support the weaker side involuntarily. But there is nothing wrong with the renewal of civilization itself. What is wrong is the shameless posture of those who claim to be civilized.

    Three brushes! A deep and atmospheric epic masterpiece, the last glory of the Western movie! The director integrates into history as a participant, examines and criticizes the heinous crimes committed by the invaders, and extols a sincere friendship across races; the vast grassland, the true temperament of the Sioux people, and the lone wolf shadow have been lingering for a long time. In my heart; no matter how simple the quality is, it can't resist the progress of history. The great civilization on horseback has since disappeared, and the butcher ruled the frontier!

Dances with Wolves quotes

  • John Dunbar: [in Lakota; subtitled] We are trying for a baby.

    Kicking Bird: [in Lakota] No waiting?

    John Dunbar: [in Lakota] No waiting.

    Kicking Bird: [in Lakota] I was just thinking that of all the trails in this life, there are some that matter most. It is the trail of a true human being. I think you are on this trail, and it is good to see.

  • Kicking Bird: [in Lakota; addressing the village council] He may be a special man or even a god. I ask that Chief Ten Bears give us permission to talk with him.

    [murmurs around the council as Wind in his Hair rises to speak]

    Wind In His Hair: [in Lakota; subtitled] I do not care for this talk about a white man at the soldier fort. Whoever he is he is not a Sioux and that makes him less. We took more then a hundred horses from these people and there was no honor in it. They don't ride well. They don't shoot well. They're dirty. Those so-called "soldiers" could not make it through one winter in our country. And all these people are said to flourish? I think they will all be dead soon... maybe in ten years.

    [murmurs circulate around the council]

    Wind In His Hair: [in Lakota] I think this fool is probably lost.

    [the councel laughs as Wind In His Hair sits back down and Kicking Bird raises his right hand as a call for silence]

    Kicking Bird: [in Lakota; subtitled] Wind In His Hair has spoken and his words are strong. It is true that the whites are a poor race and it is hard to understand them. But make no mistake, the whites are coming. Even our enemies agree on this. But when I see one white man alone and without fear in our country, I do not think he is lost. I think he may have medicine. I think this is a man who will speak for all white people. I think this is a man from which treaties may be struck.

    [the council murmurs and nods in agreement until Wind In His Hair rises to speak again]

    Wind In His Hair: [in Lakota; subtitled] Kicking Bird is always looking ahead and while that is good, he doesn't know this lone white man. This white man cannot hunt, cover our lodges, or feed our children. He is nothing to us! I will take some warriors with me and we will shoot some arrows into the white man. If he truly has medicine, he will not be hurt. If he has no medicine, he will be dead.

    [more murmurs are heard as Wind In His Hair sits back down and Stone Calf rises to speak]

    Stone Calf: [in Lakota; subtitled] No man on the council can tell another man what to do. But killing a white man is a delicate business. If you kill one, more are sure to come.

    Ten Bears: [in Lakota; subtitled] It's easy to become confused by these questions. Before we take action we need to talk about this some more at another time. That is all I have to say. This council is dismissed.
