So what about the mothers who leave their babies with the dad because she don't want to be a mom anymore? Then when the Dad leaves because he's expected to be daddy to another guys baby after she's done whoring around, who do you forgive? The dad for leaving or the mom for chasing him away?
what our fathers given quarrels ,killings , hastes , because they wanted their childrens should be good and better .so they fought to others and but they didnot think for others's childrens . on the spoilings of others our happiness

im native and i can relate so much to victor. my dad left me nd my mom when i was four. have not seen nor heard from him since then... im 16 now. but to answer the question... IF he tries to make an effort to be in my life... we will see if i can forgive him.. but for now?? no i cant
The strange thing about Thomas' speech is that is really answers no questions. It only clarifies the question for us, and leaves us to find the answer - with only the homesickness of the heart to guide us.
I am Native and I had a father but never did, he was in and out of my life when I needed him most. I have tried to forgive him, but somehow I can't. He's gone now but the anger is still there and now my son is gone too, I loved my son and I am glad that at least he knew it. Our journey can sure be a hard one enit!

this hits close to home for me when i was 16 me and my dad had a big fight i told him to fuck off and i left home. i was on the streets still i could make money working a mcdonalds or selling drugs, i saw alot of the usa with the money i had saved up i just went from on state to another than eded up back home in utah got drunk got busted for drinking cuss i was 17 my dad took me back i stayed with them for a year and went to texas to be with the 2nd women iv ever loved. and my dad forgave me.
My absolute favorite movie! I'm native and this movie reminds me of my childhood! I defiantly didn't follow in my fathers footsteps! Movie makes me shed a tear every time! Wish my father treated me the same way I treat my kids! But it is what it is! Great Native made movie!
This makes me cry every time I watch this scene. My father was never there, he basically disowned me by pretending I am not his son. This made me want to reconnect with him, and only lead me to a dead-end wall. Wish I could forgive him, wish he could forgive me. Wish we could be father and son again...
I still cry every time I hear this. I used to watch this movie all the time when I was little. It wasn't till I got older did I understand the meaning of it. My father left when I was little. I miss him everyday.
This has always moved me to tears. It's an amazing movie that makes me grateful for what I have. It reminds me that many people don't have this. It makes me want to run to my dad and hug him. I'm grateful that I can. One final thing, Thomas is my favorite person ever.
Just before my father killed himelf, we watched this movie together. I'm sure there was a message for me here, in Smoke Signals, that he hoped I'd learn without him saying anything. I learned it, Daddy. I <3 you.
why doesn't that wig that Victor is wearing get wet???? I was at Niagara Falls not too long ago and I wore my fave rave wig and it got sopping wet so I had to wear my Dolly Parton beehive wig (which you can tell is a wig) to dinner that Geddy Lee was hosting and boy did I have egg on my face...everyone knew I was wearing that wig.. Yeah. So yeah I was wondering about his wig!!!

This movie is pure genius. It cuts through every emotional and conceptual barrier and touches the inner heart. I cant watch this scene without tears.

I'm not native american, but I felt my heart ache in this last part, maybe because I too descend from conquered people.
