Four-and-a-half stars!

Skins (2002) C-87m. ***½ D: Chris Eyre. Graham Greene, Eric Schweig, Gary Farmer, Michelle Thrush, Nathaniel Arcand, Noah Watts, Lois Red Elk, Chaske Spencer, Michael Spears, Myrton Running Wolf, Leonard George. Moving, searing film centering on the relationship of two contrasting Oglala Lakota brothers living on the Pine Ridge reservation. Compelling story wrestles issues ranging from alcoholism to brotherly love, accomplished in stark atmosphere with all-too-realistic touches that make it penetrating. Greene is unforgettable as a shattering drunkard. Written from Adrian C. Louis' same-titled novel by Jennifer D. Lyne.
