Trudell is a 2005 documentary film about American Indian activist and poet John Trudell. The film traces Trudell's life from his childhood in Omaha, Nebraska, through his role as a leader of the American Indian Movement. It also covers his rebirth as a musician and spoken word poet after his wife died in a house fire suspected as arson. • Heather Rae produced and directed the film, which took her more than a decade to complete. Trudell aired nationally in the U.S. on April 11, 2006 as part of the Independent Lens series on PBS. • Actor: Robert Redford, Kris Kristofferson, Sam Shepard • Director: Heather Rae • {John Trudell was a major player in the Native American civil rights movement throughout the 1970s. In '79 he lost his wife, mother-in-law and three children to a fire in their home on a reservation in Nevada, a fire which occurred just 12 hours after Trudell set an American flag on fire on the steps of the FBI building in Washington D.C. Following the tragedy, Trudell turned his activism into poetry and music. Said best in his own words: My goal is very simple. To communicate the human experience at a level that human beings can recognize and relate to. That may be a personal statement. It may be a political statement. But whatever it is, it all comes from the same point of reference: the experiences we share as peoples of this planet. } • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trudell • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tru... • Note: I'm sorry folks for not noticing this before now, but, a nice viewer brought it to my attention recently, that this isn't the original cut. meaning, this is only 53:32 minutes long and the original is 80 mins (1hr 20min) long. • This tells me that this was probably an edited for television programming version, this is probably why YouTube hasn't taken it down as many of my other documentaries/biopics have in the past. • It was extremely hard to find this copy let alone finding the original full-length copy, but I've recently found that Amazon and Walmart have one copy each, I'll try other sources as well and buy it, when I can. • However, I doubt YouTube will allow a full-length copy to be uploaded. So, even though this copy is decent enough, I, myself, would like the original and in better quality as well. • I'll keep this one up for as long as YT will allow, but I thought I would let you all know what I learned, thank you for watching this amazing documentary about an even more amazing person, and thank you for the kind messages/comments. Take care, and stay safe everyone. Peace and very much Luv...
