Thunder Storms Toronto, NYC & Los Angeles!

West of Thunder is currently showing at the historic Theatre 80 in New York City and Laemmle’s in NoHo, where it was reviewed by the LA Times. Earlier in the week, the film received a standing ovation at the Toronto Independent Film Festival. Sadie has a supporting role as Wanda in the 2012 American western film.

“I commend you on “West of Thunder…it’s a really unusual movie …with an interesting twist. There is a spiritual voice in this movie that I had not heard before or seen before in a movie, so it’s done in a really creative way. It reminds us of our history and it also reminds us of the reality of today for the Lakota…very educational…”

“New York’s most listened to station”

The following is a beautifully written, slightly abbreviated critique of “West of Thunder” by award winning playwright, author, screenwriter and filmmaker Kathy Fehl:

“West of Thunder is a triumph of moral confrontation, surprising in its sure footed march, eventually penetrating the toughest skull in order to find that vestigial organ, the conscience. Finding a new way to describe not just the history of the relationship between settlers in this land and the indigenous people but also the way our history has been and is accommodated is a remarkable feat.”
