I understand... I just thought I would introduce my useless comment into the conversation.
Character studies can be hit or miss for a lot of folks, and usually one needs some form of affinity for a character/characters to identify with the story.
A Native population pasteurized by outside influence loose all historical identity.
I can't help but feel that a rape of a child by ones own clan because of the uncontrollable influence of westernized culture is undeniably and overwhelmingly tragic. I could never imagine this would have happened to a princess in a ancient culture where anglo-western had no bearing.
But on a much lighter note... I got to re-watch
"The Graduate" for the first time in a very long time this afternoon... oh wait.
