Stolen Women, Captured Hearts (1997)
A genuinely beautiful story, well-acted, thought-provoking, emotionally inspiring; a love story not soon forgotten.
(November 2000) I was fortunate to view "Stolen Women, Captured Hearts," on lifetime tv this past week. I highly recommend it. It is well-acted, emotionally inspiring, touching and sensitive. The story based on a true account about a Lakota warrior and his love for a young white woman that began with a vision in his childhood, reaffirmed my belief that soulmates will find each other, no matter the circumstances. The story was told simply, yet beautifully, from both sides. I especially liked the way the writer did not take sides, but showed the events from the viewpoint of both the Indians and the white women. Mr. Richard Fielder, the writer, left any decisions as to right or wrong, to the audience. This type of movie is refreshing as compared to the stereotyped movies, plots and endings of the 1940s through the 1960s. It was a pleasure watching the actors. They suspended my present reality and I was lost in the past, my fingers crossed as to the outcome. Thank you to all those who had a hand in this fine production. I give it a full 10.
