5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent 10 Mar 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a really excellent film - a very good and involving western with believable and complex characters, addressing the issue of racism in that period too. Great acting. Well made. Very enjoyable movie. And I had no trouble playing the disc either, unlike the other reviewer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Children of the Dust 15 April 2009
Format:DVD
Unfortunately, this is a criticism rather than a review. The DVD sent to me can not be played on any of my DVD and / or DVD/CD players. It's because of its format. The company will not accept it back to provide an appropriate DVD.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too bad it was edited down to nothing.... 22 July 2002
By P. Parrish - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
As the four hour Children of the Dust on television, this was an exciting and poignant story. However, for the video and DVD release, it was edited down to just two hours. Too many of the important scenes were cut, and what was left made almost no sense. I want the complete movie on DVD!

4.0 out of 5 stars They shouldn't have cut out so many scenes 21 Sep 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
I have seen both this film and the mini series that was aired on TV named "Childern of the Dust". The mini series develops the characters a little more, which makes you understand the relation between Rachel and White Wolf a lot better. I sure hope that when this title will be available on DVD it will be the mini series and not this "cut" version. Which leads to the question.. Why is this title still not available on DVD ???

4.0 out of 5 stars A Gripping love story 15 Jan 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
I saw the miniseries "Children of the Dust" when it first aired years ago. I immediately fell in love with the character of White Wolf. The romance between Rachel and White Wolf should have had more screen time, yet the movie is still incredible, dealing with issues of racism, identity, and social expectations. Watch it and watch it again!
