American Indian Graffiti: This Thing Life (2003)
A movie to share with family and friends.
My viewing of American Indian Graffiti was at the Comanche Film Festival in Lawton, OK. My preconceived opinions were mixed because I heard it was good and I heard it was an obvious first movie. While viewing and afterward, I was only concerned with the strength of the characters. The movie was deeply emotional if you allow yourself to be absorbed by these well-played roles. I am Native American, but I see this movie as relating to any people. It covers the generation gap with the part of the story about being young and the commencement into life after school. It also covers the rebirth that people can find in a later stage of life through the lives of children. The importance of friendship and family was addressed through realistic issues and romantic hardships were depicted as well. Although this may be a "low-budget" movie, I don't see that as any concern for enjoying the film. The production of the movie was so well done that it allowed the story to really shine through. I give my congratulations to all the people involved with the making of this movie. It is a film I would like to share with friends and family alike.
