An interesting factoid about John Wayne movies. For the section where the native american actors are speaking, they were told just to talk in their tribal language, pretty much. John Wayne movies took a huge step towards comedy when viewed by native americans of that tribe because of what the actors really said (usually none to nice of things and funny commentary about the costumes (ie irregardless of what tribe was supposed to be depicted--they were all dressed as plains indians) to just some offcolor remarks about their costars.
It's interesting to watch a movie with Native American themes and/or actors in a theater out here because generally, native americans make up about 90% of the audience. There was a scene in Hidalgo where Viggo starts hallucinating and the crowd was laughing but then when spirits started appearing, they silenced down immediately. And in The Missing, the "Zuni girl" line made many laugh hysterically.
