re: Is Dances With Wolves Buffalo hunt the grandest spectacle in a western?

It’s an incredible scene. My favorite from that film is actually when he begins his journey to the frontier with Timmons and we start to see the beautiful scenery with the epic score. Just elite in all facets. I have seen DWW about 150 times… that scene with the score and imagery still moves me. I remember watching it in a van on the way to ski the Rocky Mountains in my freshman year of high school and knew for a fact I wanted to explore this world the way Dunbar did.
