Movie Info

Sterlin Harjo's gentle coming-of-age drama Four Sheets to the Wind opens in the hamlet of Holdenville, Oklahoma, where a young Native American man, Cufe Smallhill (Cody Lightning of Smoke Signals), discovers his father's dead body. His dad's last wish, it seems, was to be buried in the local pond. Cufe fulfills this request, packs his bags, and heads off to the metropolis of Tulsa, where he sets about building a new life for himself. Above and beyond its dramatic, narrative and aesthetic

Like its shy hero, Four Sheets to the Wind is so low-key it risks making little impression -- until you realize it (and he) has stealthily won viewer sympathy and affection.

An uplifting yarn as a young American Indian ventures from the reservation.

A lovely tale about communication, family, forgiveness, and 'something resembling love,' told through the story of a Native American family in small-town Oklahoma.

Harjo's likable Native American fable is very much in the tradition of Smoke Signals, except that the equally sentimental narrative centers on a siblings relationsip rather than father-son medlodrama.

A film with some wonderfuly oddball comedy while also being a very heart-felt statement about expanding on the person you are and finding your true voice.

I don't think this movie is for eeryone. However, the dead on depiction of the modern native american family is phenominal. Although I loved Smoke Signals, this trancended that film. It could have just been an honest movie about indian culture but it went on to tell a story with meaning and grace.

Pleasantly acted, very good character development and a interesting story. However it is very slowly paced and at times it drags very much at times. Too slow for my taste.
