Making the white man's Indian : native Americans and Hollywood movies

Book

Making the white man's Indian : native Americans and Hollywood movies / Angela Aleiss.

Summary:

"In this new study, author Angela Aleiss traces the history of Native Americans on the silver screen, and breaks new ground by drawing on primary sources such as studio correspondence, script treatments, trade newspapers, industry censorship files, and filmmakers' interviews to reveal how and why Hollywood created its Indian characters. Behind-the-scenes anecdotes of filmmakers and Native Americans, as well as rare archival photographs, supplement the discussion, which often shows a stark contrast between depiction and reality."--Jacket.
