Fan Comments

THUNDERHEART is a movie I love, [and has] a pairing that made itself absolutely blatant to me from the first moment where one of the guys beats the shit out of the other one and then realizes he's a cop. Guy #1 is an FBI agent,

played by the lush-lipped Val Kilmer, sent to investigate a murder on a Sioux reservation because he (Kilmer's character) is 1/8 Sioux and they want to be able to say they are sending an Indian in to help the Indians. The FBI man, of course, knows nothing about his heritage. Guy #2 is a tribal police officer, Walter Crow Horse, played by Graham Greene of the long shining black hair and keen sense of humor. The course of their relationship as it develops throughout the movie will trigger the knowing recognition of any slash fan. [1]
