Despite an irritating, tacked-on voice-over narration that somebody must have thought was necessary to make sense of the story (it wasn't), <i>Last of the Dogmen</i> is actually a very moving and magical film. Tom Berenger plays a Montana bounty hunter who helps an anthropologist (Barbara Hershey) search for the descendants of a Cheyenne tribe who disappeared in the 1870s. What the two find in a remote mountain stretch is an entire community of Cheyenne who have kept themselves cut off from the modern world. A <I>Dances with Wolves</i> parallel emerges as the white outsiders gradually fit in, but <i>Last of the Dogmen</i> stands up just fine without comparison to any other films. As in Kevin Costner's Oscar-winning movie, however, there are ways in which this film captures a similar sense of yearning, mystery, and loss. <I>--Tom Keogh</I>
Viewer Reviews
Last Of The Dog Men ranks right up there with Dreamkeeper for me. This is a beautiful film to look at.With a great story and musical score. Like a great book,it grabs you from the beginning and carries you through till the end. The acting by all,is superb,as well.
How it treats the issue of this last surviving tribe is especially respectful and satisfying.
Once viewed,the scenery will never be forgotten. I don't believe anyone could be disappointed in this film.
