Dances With Wolves (1990)

Information at Internet Movie Database

Themes

Conversion/Transformation

Lt. John J. Dunbar is "converted/transformed" into Dances With Wolves by learning a new language, learning new stories, and learning to tell his story in a new way. This is very much how Jesus trained the first disciples and how today's disciples are most fruitfully transformed. The Gospel story is the story that claimed us before we knew we didn't have a story. (paraphrased from Dr. Stanley Hauerwas by Jon/Holly Stouffer)

Journey

Kicking Bird: I was thinking that of all the trails in this life, there is one that matters more than all the others. It is the trail of a human being. I think that you are on this trail and it is good to see.
