2.0 out of 5 stars Skinwalkers Hillerman vs. Redford, 9 Jul 2004
By bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
"Sun will be created - They say he has planned it all."
Skinwalkers are witches in the Navaho legends and can fly or turn themselves into a dog or wolf. This mystery involves the conflict between Skinwalkers and shamen and belegana medicine. Then again it may be a straightforward set of independent murders. In any event it looks like some one is out to kill Navajo Tribal Police Officer Jim Chee and he has not got a clue as to why.
As with all of Tony Hillerman's stories you have the feeling you are there. In fact if you have visited or live in the area (Four Corners canyons) that the mystery takes part in, you will be better able to identify with the people and landmarks. And as with his other books there is an overt and covert story.
This is the TV version of Skinwalkers with Robert Redford. He has a habit of redfordizing (twisting) stories for his own agenda. This book was so strongly written that I thought Redford did not have a chance to modify it. I was wrong. He changed the whole underlying primes of the story. One may think that Redford did not read the book although history has shown him to have modified several stories to suit his agenda such as "Three Days of the Condor." Maybe due to time constraints many of the Navaho traditions that make Hillerman's work unique were glossed over.
The book is much more in depth and the motive and additional characters made the mystery much more intriguing. Even the previous attempt at Hillerman films "Dark Wind" was closer to the feel. However on the positive side without Redford would anyone have made this TV film?
