This movie is about Victor Frankenstein and the creation of his monster
13 December 1999
I really enjoyed this movie version adaption of the Mary Shelley novel.

I think that Kenneth Branagh did an exceptional job as Victor Frankenstein and Robert De Niro's portrayl of the monster is exquisite.

I also like Helena Bohnam Carter's portrayal as Elizabeth.

Smoke Signals (1998)
7/10
This is movie is about 2 young men who go on a road trip to retrieve Victor Joseph's father's ashes
3 December 1999
I really enjoyed this story about 2 young men living on a reserve.

The story line of this film is simple and straight to the point , it is also very funny.

I love Evan Adams portrayl of Thomas builds the fire is hilarious and I found Adam Beaches portrays Victor as a very strong , but bullheaded young man.

Irene bedard stars as susie song a neighbour of Victor's father, Gary farmer as Victor's father and Tantoo Cardinal as Victor's mother.

There are moments in this film where the viewer can't stop laughing and the friendship between Victor and Thomas makes the viewer smile.

The references to the fry bread making, the weather man who doesn't say much and the reference to the US being as foreign as it gets off the reserve ring true for these two young men who are on a journey that gives them an eye opener to life outside the reserve.

If you haven't sen this film , it is definately a must see. It deserves 10 stars

In the Blue Ground (1999 TV Movie)
This movie is based on the north of 60 television drama
30 November 1999
In the blue ground is the continuing story of the residents of lynx river and stars most of the original cast members of the popular CBC drama.

The plot itself is exciting , it is a fast paced plot leaving the audience shocked when the killer of a geologist and the kidnapper of nurse Sarah birkett(Tracey Cook) is revealed.

If you have never seen the series north of 60 this movie is a good introduction to the show.

It was filmed in Bragg Creek, Alberta where the show was originally filmed with the same breathtaking scenery.

I think it deserve 10 stars because it was such an excellent film**********.

This movie is based on the true story of Mary crow dog a lakota sioux woman
30 November 1999
Lakota woman is about Mary crow dog's experience living on a reserve, attending residential school and then becoming apart of the American Indian movement.

It is in my opinion an excellent film to watch and definately gives you a history lesson about the aim movement and the seige that took place at wounded knee.

If you have not seen Lakota Woman go out and rent this film it is an uplifting and genuine true story

Irene bedard's portrayl of Mary Crow dog is true to what Mary 's character really is. I think it deserves 10 stars **********

North of 60 (1992–1998)
This program is is about people on a fictional dene reserve in the Northwest territories
27 November 1999
I personally love North of 60 it is dramatic, but is funny at times and it deals with real situations that happen on dene reserves.

I believe that this is a truly entertaining program and that if you haven't checked out this series that is now in syndication you don't know what you are missing.

This cast is extraordinary and the show deserves the praise that it does.

This show was filmed in Bragg Creek, Alberta and the scenery is breathtaking

I have learned a lot about the dene people through the program and I think it deserves 5 stars *****
