Adam Beach is a famous Native (Saulteaux ethnicity, from Manitoba) actor. What topic does he discuss in Reel Injun?
It was difficult for him to be cast in any other role than as an Indian (second role, “bad guy”) because he was typecast just for being Native American.
He didn’t know whether he wanted to play the role of a drunk Indian (because drinking is a serious issue and a stereotype within Native culture).
His true desire in acting was to be on the stage in a Shakespearean piece, but because he’s Indian, that could never happen.
Many White women refused to accept the role of his romantic interest, which shut him out of many films.
