Thats a review? Nothing better to do with your time? uglygeorge 1 ericthatsme 2005-08-20 13:38:04 2005-08-20 13:38:04 As General Custer said at Little Big Horn: "Did you ever see so many freakin' Indians ? Injuns 1 Accountant 2005-08-21 06:29:30 2005-08-21 06:29:30 Some Native Americans perform a buffalo dance. This is pretty strange-looking, but it was probably authentic, given its time period, so I’m not going to comment. It does have a lot of historical value, though. An 1894 Edison film. Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: N/A. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: *****. Overall Rating: ****. Strange, but Most Likely Authentic 4 Christine Hennig 2005-10-01 17:49:33 2005-10-01 17:49:33 Ignoring sarcastic reviewers I think this is one of the most important snippets in the history of the cinema. In just twenty-two seconds we have a glimpse of members of a race of people now totally destroyed or subdued. We see four "Primitives" performing self-consciously before a camera owned by other people who would in time prove to be their "Superiors". We can laugh, but how many of us are able to see the tragic side? This clipping tells me more in a few seconds than some films do in two hours. Awarding stars will do nothing for this clipping, it is, for me, eternal, and I hope it will continue to be restored for generation to generation, for all the pathos of man is in it. Buffalo Dance - a tragic comedy 5 victorgeorge 2006-05-27 10:48:23 2006-07-13 11:11:28 Three Indians stomping around in a circle. One of the Indians is a real ham, one of the very first camera hogs. I watched it three times, still 110 degrees, no rain. Fake! 112 year-old Indian flick 1 Bob Capps 2006-07-16 06:12:08 2006-07-16 06:12:08 who believes himself to be "righteous" in his mind I count "cyber" coup - upon you What? Your surprised? did you think that that we "freaking Indians" no longer existed and thats why you felt free to expose your ill minded- ideology tsk tsk chop chop you have an obvious need to further educate yourself to the accountant 1 tannis nielsen 2007-02-01 07:19:59 2007-02-01 07:19:59 first, it says BUFFALO dance NOT rain dance, duh and i am sure it's authentic. people ALSO dance to show how impressive they are, no matter WHAT the dance or WHAT the century or WHAT the nationality. the man mentioned as a "ham" probably is important in his society would, people could tell right away by how he dances, etc., in relation to what THEY find impressive, not YOU. so ignorant.
