On a misty morning in the fall of 1985, a small group of Haida people blockaded a muddy dirt road on Lyell Island, demanding the government work with Indigenous people to find a way to protect the land and the future. In a riveting new feature documentary drawn from more than a hundred hours of archival footage and audio, award-winning director Christopher Auchter (Now Is the Time) recreates the critical moment when the Haida Nation’s resolute act of vision and conscience changed the world.

NADINE U JUST DO U, STAY EVIL AND SERVE CUNT! SLAY BADDIE💜
(copy & paste of my srlzd.com review):
as someone who hasn’t read the book but looking at all the reviews saying things were out of order i could tell things didnt match up. tbh its making me want to read it so i can see how out of order it really was. but overall, it had some great moments and cool cinematography. a couple cringe actors and scenes but not too bad. logistically, the events in the show don’t make any sense like the entire plot of there’s a huge plauge wiping out billions but oh actually las vegas has been thriving, what? and they r somehow multiplying boulder as well? idk. but i think this should’ve been a bit more post-apocalyptic it would’ve been so cool and aesthetic but they lowkey ruined that near the end.
this small blurb is dedicated to nadine, literally the best character. i think they should’ve focused more on her story it was so intriguing. they did a lousey job with her character in the end and could’ve done smth way cooler. lowk did her so dirty in the end wtf was that spirit halloween ass makeup?! anyway love amber, don’t care what u think abt her. she’s talented. horror suits her so well.

Just wrapped up this mini series and it was overall fantastic!
I am a big fan of the mini series form the 90’s so I was excited for this remake and for the most part I wasn’t disappointed. James Marsden is no Gary Sinise but he was so charming and was a great Stu!
Owen Teague DELIVERED Harolds character to us on a silver platter. He was perfect and I couldn’t have asked for more!
Joven Adepo is someone I had never heard of, yet he gave me the Larry that I wanted and the Larry I wish they had in the 90’s series.
My biggest reasoning for docking it some stars is because I felt like they did Nick’s character dirty. He has such an important role and yet they didn’t give us any of it. He and Tom’s relationship wasn’t really shown to the extent it should have been.
He deserved better. The trash can man was more disturbingly weird than he was just normal weird trash can man and I fee at times that Ezra Miller overplayed it.. I wasn’t a big fan of his portrayal.
Overall though, I thought it was a good adaption, considering how big the book is, they did well for only having 9 episodes, although I would
Have liked to have more episodes and maybe a different characters story per episode because there is so much that was missing that could have been great.
Stephen King purist may hate this, but for me personally, I enjoyed it!
