The Silent EnemyComment:  This lineup is slightly different from the previous lineup. As they say, check your local listings.

If this is the final lineup, I've seen 14 or 15 of the 29 films. I'm not sure if I saw Nanook of the North when I was young.

The trailer below is a bit funny. Among the "Indians" it shows are Audrey Hepburn and Burt Lancaster. Lancaster is the only person it quotes.

The trailer says the series will go beyond the stereotypes, but it'll include plenty of stereotypes too. In fact, most of the movies were made by non-Natives and include mistakes and stereotypes.
