What a great story. It even made me cry at the end.
Fighting fake news back then as well!

Hanks never disappoints.

4. We enjoyed

it! It treated indigenous peoples more ethically than films of old.

5. Great movie.

6. I find this kind of movie is more of "same old, same old"

More of the heroic white man and heartrending story. I would much prefer more stories about the Indians lives and the Indians massacred, then find 1 more story of times of the Indians made into a Heroic White Man story.

7. It was an enjoyable book

I read the novel when it came out. Then watched the movie a couple of weeks ago. Hanks did a great job as the lead. He also had a command performance in Greyhound, a WWII movie.
