This book looks at the history and role of the Hollywood film industry as a generator of a stereotyped Native American culture and, consequently, also a stereotyped Native American music. The widely acclaimed epic Dances With Wolves serves as an illustrative model because it is perhaps one of Hollywood's most celebrated endeavours to portray a fairly realistic picture of Native American life - which is their culture and music. Will this cultural and musical "reality", however, stand ethnomusicological scrutiny?
