ReplyDeletePlease recall that, in earlier posts, writerfella asked a salient question several times: Rob, what would you say and do on your blog if BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE received multiple Emmy nominations and then won HBO multiple Emmys? As a futurist, writerfella once again is being vindicated...

Whatever questions you asked, I answered them. Unlike you, I'm not afraid to take a stand.
ReplyDeleteSo far Bury My Heart has won Emmys only in technical categories such as makeup and sound mixing. Since I had no opinion on the movie's makeup or sound mixing, these Emmys don't faze me.
I also didn't have opinions on the movie's acting or directing. If Bury My Heart wins an Emmy in one of these categories, that won't faze me either.
The only thing I commented on is the flaws and stereotypes in the screenplay. The only Emmys relevant to this are "best screenplay" and "best picture." When Bury My Heart wins one of these Emmys, then we can talk.

Bury My Heart won six Emmys, including "Outstanding Made For Television Movie--2007." Fortunately, that has no bearing on my criticism of its mistakes and stereotypes.
