Save your money,

This review is from: The Indian Picture Opera - A Vanishing Race (DVD)
This is a very poor indication of Curtis's photography. The amateurish production is wrought with lame special effects that get in the way of viewing the actual works. The narration is informative at times, but redundant and often needless. I was hoping just to see his remarkable photographs with accompany score as it was originally intended. This is not the original slide show that stunned and amazed audiences in 1911. Save your money. A much better documentary on the life and monumental works of Edward Curtis is "Coming to Light."

Part of History not to be forgotten,
By Jim Kherns (Kansas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Indian Picture Opera - A Vanishing Race (DVD)
This is an interesting presentation that reflects on a dark part of American history. The assault on Native Americans will never be forgotten. These images of Indian portraits bring a very human dimension. The works of Edward Curtis are a resource that should be commended.

Edward Curtis - Live on Stage!,
By Vintage Photo Collector (portland, or) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Indian Picture Opera - A Vanishing Race (DVD)
I enjoyed hearing the words of Curtis, as he was a much misunderstood man. It showed an empathy that history has ignored about the man. His empathy toward the Indian, that is.It was pleasing to watch something that wasn't strictly a documentary, but a piece of time, unearthed. It looked and sounded great on my HD set with surround-sound. To offer a suggestion, more music would make it ever better.
