Saw the 5th World over at the Phoenix Film Festival. The local newspaper trashed the film. Wanted to see and make my own opinion. Thought the acting could have been better. I actually thought the Aunt & Uncle dialog was great, would have liked to see more close ups. The narration on the film at the beginning I trouble with. You don't know who is taking and I had a hard time trying to make a connection. The best part was seeing Ernie & June performing. Would have loved to see a real love scene. The scenery was beautiful no doubt about it. I thought the actors did not do a good job getting the emotion out. Their there to tell a story. Don't think the director got the best out of the 2 main actors. The ending or conflict was great, loved that a lot, but the middle of the film was boring. I think the director has objectives & goals, we either got it or didn't get it. Well, I kind of got it, but it could be better. But I do hope Blackhorse keeps making films and does not give up. I will keep seeing Native American productions!
