Thank you so much, Chief Sitting Bull. Thank you for showing the beauty of a great nation. I now live in what is called NY and I wish I had never come here. I had no other option as I was forced into exile by the israeli military occupation. I wish that I could go to a country where its natives would welcome me because I can't return home and I feel guilty for living on this land without the permission of its rightful owners.
May the souls of those beautiful people who were slaughtered in cold blood rest in eternal peace!

I just completed my second viewing of "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee." It was much more intense than the first! My only disappointment is with the speed with which it was delivered. I certainly wish that HBO had tackled this story like they did "Band of Brothers." The slow and deliberate telling of this historic tragedy would have been much more revealing of the devastating treatment of the Lakota people. I, for one, am overwhelmed.
I must tell you that your portrayal of the Great Chief Sitting Bull (for the second time in your career) was again inspiring and incredible. Your intensity was amazing. You created the entire mood for this film and provided it worth and substance. Thank you. Bravo.

After a long wait to see the HBO premiere of "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee", all I have to say is Mr. Schellenberg's portraly of Sitting Bull was utterly breathtaking. My only wish would have been that HBO had made a mini-series instead of a two hour movie because the legend of Tatanka Iyotanka deserves far more attention in American History than was granted by the filmakers. I was a big fan of the "Centennial" series when I was a teenager and even with it's speed of delivery "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" very much reminded me of that great series, mostly in part to Mr. Schellenberg's outstanding performance.
