My Favorite Modern Day Westerns: Dances With Wolves (1990)

Dances With Wolves (1990)






Kevin Costner produced and directed this epic Western film. The movie starred Kevin Costner, Mary McDonnell. The film centers around the story of Union Army lieutenant John J. Dunbar (Costner), who travels to the American frontier to find a military post, and of his dealings with a group of Lakota Indians who take him in as one of their own.


With solid performances, breathtaking scenery and the depiction of Native Americans as complex human beings makes Dances With Wolves a refreshing modern day classic.
