"Dance with Wolves" is a pure excellent Western movie from the 1990's. The plot focuses on Lieutenant John Dunbar, a Civil war officer who befriends a band of Lakota Sioux and adopts their culture in the post-Civil War American West. The treatment of the Lakota Sioux people is truly remarkable by portraying them as individuals with feelings, honorable peculiar customs, and human beings with human urges and impulses. This movie speaks directly to the heart and soul of The Native Americans. The Lakota language is beautifully spoken. The relationship between John J. Dunbar and the Lakota Sioux people is excellently portrayed. The cast is superb. Kevin Costner gives a brilliant performance as Lieutenant John J. Dunbar and portrays his character perfectly.
