Just got through watching "The Searchers," John Huston movie about John Wayne looking for Natalie Wood, his niece, who was kidnapped by the Comanche, who killed her family. He wants to kill her, because she has been used, sexually, for years, by the Comanche chief. Yet, she is one of the wives of the Comanche chief. Very ambiguous movie. Famous for the ambiguity, in fact, it's kind of the point of the movie. As someone who is part Indian, it's more ambiguous to me than to someone who isn't Indian, or part Indian, I think. Is it good, bad or indifferent that Natalie Wood is the "wife" of the chief, and that she is no longer "pure"? I don't know, that's kind of the point of the movie, too.
