Eskimo (1933)

This was unavailable to purchase till just this past year or so. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer would not release this movie made in 1934, and which received 1934 Film Editing Oscar, the first ever awarded. Some of what you will see in this film will never be able to be filmed again, such as some of the hunting scenes, on land and in the Ocean. Fabulous historical film.

A snapshot of rare rural Alaska / Canadian way of life reaching back into pre- historic times.Especially considering the Yupiks shoved real plugs down the blow hole of the whales to suffocate them. I was on edge feeling the raw hatred of misunderstandings. It was tense. I would highly recommend it. 5 StarMike Young, Fairbanks, Alaska

The move is a little slow but well made for the time. It was of interest to us as a relative of ours helped in the making of it

One of the most important movies in Native American history. The movie won the first Oscan for film editing and is a hidden treasure

Good backgound on Alaska if you know the backstory.

cultural icon. reflection of real life, marvelous story line. perfect musical melody. must viewing for those who seek insight in historical relationship between native arctic civilization, and white exploitation

I like it alot

Great movie from times past, to be appreciated, not judged.
