"Ay Victor"

Life on the reservation seemed rather "over-populated" in the movie (extreme case of sarcasm). You saw the traffic. I would just lose it if I had to wait that long to get where i wanted. Life on the reservation in general seems to only be a place where solely oppressed Native Americans lived. Apparently they ate a lot of pan (spanish for bread). They even enjoyed growing their hair out so you couldn't figure out whether they were a guy or a female. What else..... They seemed to also inherit.......... interesting traits (Ex: Thomas's smile).

According to Montana 1948, the Indians were quiet, and "dominated" by the "white man" (2 meanings to this: 1 school appropriate. The other not so much). The Indians represented the poor inhabitants of society, as well as the group with the weakest representation. In both situations, the Native Americans had to work with the materials they had. In addition, they possessed strong ties to one another.
