Tom Bell stars as a discontented young husband who begins an affair
with a 15-year-old girl in this drama written and directed by Gerry
O'Hara, based on his own novel. Bored with his job and marriage to
wife Joy (Judy Carne), electrician Len Lewin (Bell) starts up an
affair with teenage actress Val (Olivia Hussey). Swept up in the
initial rush of excitement, the pair are quickly forced to
re-evaluate their situation when Val discovers that she is
pregnant.
Rarely does a primary source become available that provides new and
significant information about the history and culture of a famous
American Indian tribe. With A Cheyenne Voice, readers now have
access to a vast ethnographic and historical trove about the
Cheyenne people - much of it previously unavailable. A Cheyenne
Voice contains the complete transcribed interviews conducted by
anthropologist Margot Liberty with Northern Cheyenne elder John
Stands In Timber (1882-1967). Recorded by Liberty in 1956-1959 when
she was a schoolteacher on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation
in southeastern Montana, the interviews were the basis of the
well-known 1967 book Cheyenne Memories. While that volume is a
noteworthy edited version of the interviews, this volume presents
them word for word, in their entirety, for the first time. Along
with memorable candid photographs, it also features a unique set of
maps depicting movements by soldiers and warriors at the Battle of
the Little Bighorn. Drawn by Stands In Timber himself, they are
reproduced here in full color. The diverse topics that Stands In
Timber addresses range from traditional stories to historical
events, including the battles of Sand Creek, Rosebud, and Wounded
Knee. Replete with absorbing, and sometimes even humorous, details
about Cheyenne tradition, warfare, ceremony, interpersonal
relations, and everyday life, the interviews enliven and enrich our
understanding of the Cheyenne people and their distinct history.
