 Bilingual Bonus: Much of the film relies on the ambiguity of the Cayuse man's intentions. His monologues are left untranslated, but someone who knows downriver Nez Perce will find out the secret: The man does intend to lead them to water. He's angry at Meek for being a fur trapper and threatens him. In idle moments, he wonders who his captors are and whether they even exist, calling them "dream people." When he arrives at the valley, he recites a legend about the discovery of horses.
