Good Movie, Some Inaccuracies
20 April 2020
I enjoyed this movie, but there were some inaccuracies that kept me from enjoying it to the fullest. Being from North Dakota, I have quite a bit of background of where places are. Some of the places mention did not line up with their actual locations. Waniya says that she is from Berthold, since they mention Mandaree after that, I assume they mean Fort Berthold Reservation. There are two problems with that: 1) Madaree is not above the Missouri like Waniya says and 2) the description says that he works to rescue a Lakota girl, but Fort Berthold is home to the Three Affiliated Tribes, not the Lakota. Next, There are no armadillo in North Dakota. Finally, there are not as many windmills in North Dakota as the movie depicts.
