    I watched the movie last night. Seemed odd to me that it was so cold in Monument Valley in early July (assuming it took a couple of weeks for news of Custer's demise to reach the fort). I also was surprised by the buffalo...don't think there is enough grass for a herd of buffalo to eat in the valley. Problem with me is I have flown and driven all over that part of the country and know it pretty well. Still loved the movie!

    Defiance is a 2008 World War II era film written, produced and directed by Edward Zwick, set during the occupation of Belarus by Nazi Germany. The film is an account of the Bielski partisans, a group led by three Jewish brothers who saved and recruited Jews in Belarus during the Second World War. The film stars Daniel Craig as Tuvia Bielski, Liev Schreiber as Zus Bielski, Jamie Bell as Asael Bielski and George MacKay as Aron Bielski.


    It was pretty good. The movie is based on real events and was filmed about a 100 miles from the real forest. Daniel Craig was terrific.
