Is that a sub-tribe of Cherokee or just another (correct) name for Cherokee?

I enjoyed it very much. Your #1 movie is the first time I ever saw Wes Studi (Magua). While most people find his character incredibly evil, I always understood his reasoning. I read the Cooper stories as a kid.

Have you seen Eyre's short film A Thousand Roads (2005)? If so, did you like it? I haven't seen it yet.

Our original name is Aniyunwiya... which means 'The People'... Cherokee is actually a Creek word that means 'people who speak different'.... the Europeans picked it up years ago, and from then on, most people called us by that name... We call ourselves Tsalagi... :)


Okay... this really made me smile... To me, there was a lot more to Magua and I've never seen him as the bad guy... we had a small discussion about The Last of the Mohicans in the Ethnic/Racial Movies thread you might like to read...

No, I need to order that one but just keep forgetting to... I've heard really good things about it though...

Caitlyn ur avatar is scary ass f****

I wonder why they're your favourites.

Wow... you've only seen seven on my list? You should really check out a few of them... especially Benny and Joon and Amélie... I think you would like both of them... :)

I know... I love it... :D


:p :D

I knew someone was going to say something about that :laugh:

The Magdalene Sisters good choice and many others.

I love your list! A lot of fun, offbeat interesting choices and not the same films that you see on everyone else's lists...I literally screamed when I saw #100 was Westworld...I absolutely love that movie and you don't see a lot of discussion about it on these boards. It was also great to see Crash on your list...I couldn't believe you had Benny and Joon on there and I also screamed when I saw Edward Scissorhands in your top 10. Awesome list!

Yeah, me too. I know that, all things considered, it would seem unlikely that the unthinkable happened, but given that there was no buildup at all and not so much as a peep since, it's hard not to think that. Hopefully it's just us that's missing her and not everyone.
