The film “Son of the Morning Star” was based on the best selling book “Son of the Morning Star” written by Evan S. Connell. The film starred actor Gary Cole who wonderfully played the famous General Custer. Another lead actor was Rodney A. Grant who played Crazy Horse. Supporting actors included Rosanna Arquette as Libby Custer, Stanley Anderson as Ulysses S. Grant, Dean Stockwell as General Philip Sheridan and narration by Buffy Sainte-Marie. I thought having Buffy Sainte-Marie narrative the Indian’s views throughout the film was a good idea. This Native maiden was Kate Bighead. You really got a feel on how the Native Americans felt through this horrific time period. The view of Custer’s wife Libby also tells the story. With both views being told it balances the story to were you hear both sides. All the actors really played their character well. The title of the book/ film gets its name because that is what the Native Americans call Custer, “Son of the morning star who attacks at dawn”. This is stated in the film when Kate Bighead starts to narrate and tells you how she as a Indian maiden feels about him. She describes the way her looks and acts which is spot on to how he actually acted and looked. Gary Cole played George Custer, who was the leader of the 7th Cavalry of the Great Plains, which took place in the 1870s. Custer goal was to rid America of all Native Americans. From the very beginning Custer had no intentions of maintaining peace with Native Americans. He broke treaties so that settlers could mine for gold in Indian Reservations. The story of Son of the Morning Star doesn’t make Custer the ultimate bad guy but additionally doesn’t show Custer as an American hero that earlier stories portrayal. The story of film shows a young ruthless army officer that he really was. Gary Cole plays an unbelievable Colonel Custer. The film depicts the events prior to The Battle of Little Big Horn. The first part of the film seems slow and disordered and is the movie’s only mistake. We encounter the characters, soak in the rich
(psychologically), hurt (physically), or destroy (mortally or spiritually) others. According to various scenarios of early Christian Church Fathers (from Cyprus, Armenia, Greece, and France), Lucifer was God’s favorite angel, referred to as the “Morning Star,” as “Light,” as the “Prince of the Power of Air,” or of the Atmosphere. His sin, and the origin of his transformation into the Devil, stems from his envy of man and disobedience to God. Lucifer resented God’s command that all of the angels should…
the bible teaches about God and Satan. Satan was originally named Lucifer the morning star, God gave Lucifer so much knowledge and great things but the problem was that he wanted to be God. Isaiah 14:12 says “how you have fallen from heaven morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth.” We see here that god cast him out of heaven and onto the earth. Job 1:6 says “now there was a day when the sons of god came to present themselves before the lord, Satan also came among them…
scenery is just amazing. The moon, is so bright. I don’t need a flashlight to walk around at night. When I look up at the sky I see millions of stars. It’s the kind of view I can’t see in the city. In Tampa there are too many tall buildings and lights everywhere. But in Bradenton, thirty miles away from the city I can see everything. There are shooting stars left and right. It’s so quiet; I don’t hear any cars driving by, helicopters flying above, or airplanes in the sky. When I went to cast my line…
many times. According to www.jw.org, Jehovah’s Witnesses practice Christianity but they differ from others who have Christian beliefs in the way that they do not believe in the trinity, which is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This group only recognizes Jesus simply as the son of God. Also, other Christians believe in a literal hell that has fire and brimstone. Jehovah’s Witnesses do not. Jehovah’s Witnesses also practice disfellowship. This is often called shunning. Because of…

enjoy Lake Hanna because of its tranquil lakes, the natural surrounding beauty, and the people we meet every year. The lakes are always crystal clear and the perfect temperature. They seem to sparkle in the day and the night sky. Early in the morning, my husband and I like to sit on the cabin porch and watch the sunrise over the lake, the sun beams down on the lake reflecting its beauty directly onto the water and warming it from the cool night air the night before. After breakfast, the first…

take family vacations, the best way for me to spend my summer is supporting my son and taking the opportunity to bond with my family. He steps out of the room yelling, “Mom, I’m ready, are you ready?” He’s dressed in blinding white Muzzino pants with a red and blue braid piped down each leg, red jersey with Warriors written in Roman script nicely tucked in secured by a red belt. His blue hat with the three red stars is atop his head. Yup he’s ready! “I’m ready and so is Coach.” I say over my shoulder…
