Searchers

I found it interesting that they used both the noble Indian and the savage Indian.  Scar representing the savage Indian, while Martin although only being an 1/8 Indian representing the Noble Indian.  I find that Ethan's attitude towards Martin plays a bigger role in pushing Martin to become a better man.  Although Ethan is very racist, and mean to Martin, its all to push him further to finding Debbie.

  1. I found that pretty ironic as well, because they had the good and the bad all at once. The other thing I noticed was that the savage indian (Scar) was worse than the noble indian (Martin). Ethan was only mean to Martin for the first 3/4 of the movie, after that they seemed to get along just fine. I think the story would have been better if they were looking for the older girl too, but she was dead in a valley somewhere.
