Dances With Wolves won the Best Picture Oscar and was Kevin
Costner's crowning achievement . Both as director and actor. Costner
plays the role of an Army lieutenant who volunteers to serve at a
remote army post located on the vanishing western frontier. It is
there that he meets native Americans and forms a close relationship
with them. The Indians are a little leery at first but come to
respect and admire this particular white man, even as they fear the
coming of more. The name of the film comes from a scene where the
injuns see Costner playing with a wolf by chasing it around and vise
versa. Technically he wasn't really dancing with the wolf, like doing
the Charleston or the twist, but it is a must see film never-the-less.
One extremely well deserved Best Picture Oscar. |
