Trivia
The movie implies Caroline and Sitting Bull had no connection prior to her arrival in Standing Rock, which is inaccurate. They began corresponding around 1888, after Sitting Bull was in Washington, discussing fair prices for Dakota land and maps of the government's plans to reduce the size of the tribes' reservations at length.

Errores
When Sitting Bull speaks at the public hearing of the Allotment Act, he speaks of many chiefs who have died and are part of the land. One chief he mentions is Rain-In-the-Face, who passed away in 1905, fifteen years after the scene takes place. One can argue that Sitting Bull makes reference to his eventual passing though.

Citas
Sitting Bull: She's from New York.
Catherine Weldon: I thought you liked New York.
Sitting Bull: Too many people with too much. Too many people with nothing at all. Your society values people by how much you have... ours by how much we give away.

Mostly fact-based 1889 story of a New York painter and Sitting Bull.

My wife and I found this movie streaming on Amazon Prime, with high-def picture and D-D surround sound. Quite nice presentation and beautiful cinematography. Filmed in New Mexico.

It was the 1880s and Native Americans had already been defeated and controlled by the American government. A New York painter, Jessica Chastain in the role of Catherine Weldon, becomes sympathetic to the plight of the Natives and decides to travel to North Dakota to meet Sitting Bull, paint his portrait, and assist him and his people resist.

The movie isn't completely fact-based, it doesn't even mention her son, and the events that led to Sitting Bull's murder in 1890 are highly dramatized in the script, but overall it is a good dramatic depiction of what the relationship consisted of.

Canadian actor Michael Greyeyes is very good as Sitting Bull, powerful chief relegated to potato farming. This is a good movie but it is a sad reminder of how poorly the Native Americans were treated back then.
