A film about the salvation of an orphan by an old indian couple who teach the ways of nature in a romaticised mountain setting is inevitably going to be schmaltzy and over-sugared, BUT, if you give the film a chance it manages to be both moving and honest. The story is taken from Forest Carter's book of the same title and if you are interested in the theme I would reccomend the book over the film, but this is really a very positive and interesting film - well worth viewing.
br /A certain amount of controversy surrounds Forest Carter himself which makes the back-story all the more intriguing - probably best to investigate that after reading the book or seeing the film.....
A thought provoking story October 25, 2007 Ruach (England) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This film seems to be set in depression era America and is the story of a young orphaned half-white, half-cherokee boy called Little Tree who goes to live with his grandparents in their rural mountain cabin.
br /
br /Here he learns of his Cherokee heritage, and due to the interference of the authorities, is sent off to Notch Gap Indian school where he is incarcerated, until his grandfather rescues him. This film highlights the racist policies of the US administration in full swing with the segregation of the indian population from mainstream life.
br /
br /However, this is not a sad or depressing film, there is a good storyline and the acting is excellent. It will appeal to children and adults alike.
