    I have a number of Indigenous colleagues who were thrilled to see Indigenous characters and perspectives on the screen (see also: Rez Dogs, which hits so many tropes so well). As someone who finally saw their own culture reflected when My Big Fat Greek Wedding came out, the way my heart glowed was memorable, and I hope as many people as possible get to see their own cultures in the same way. I was a bit sad that the Cherokee version was a dub instead of the actors speaking it themselves but loss of language is one of the many shameful legacies of colonization. (In that vein I really liked what Brøn/Brœn did with Danish/Swedish characters speaking to each other in their own languages, and reminds me of English/French Canadian productions like Bon Cop/Bad Cop where they move between languages seamlessly)
