It recently occurred to me that one of my fave feel good/comfort movies, Big Eden, could be included as part of C6D because it stars Eric Schweig who was in the due South pilot.
Big Eden is a sweet film about a gay man who returns to his small hometown in Montana to take care of his ill grandfather, and pretty much the whole town then proceeds to play matchmaker between him and the local general store owner, Pike (Eric Schweig).
This film means a lot to me as Native/Indigenous representation is hard to come by, and queer Native/Indigenous rep even more so. I highly recommend it to any dS/C6D fans, and anyone in general, who wants to watch a lovely queer romance.

Pike is tall, shy, autistic, and his love language is cooking, he’s literally the ideal man

I'd forgotten how silly and wholesome this movie was. The old busybody welcomes Henry into town, engineers a party for him to meet all the eligible ladies. When she realizes Henry is gay, she redoes the whole party but with a bunch of men. Without missing a beat.
Then there's Pike who is teaching himself to cook so he can replace Mrs. Thayer's terrible cooking with his own on his meal deliveries to Henry, but won't take credit for it because he's painfully shy.
Meanwhile Henry's high school boyfriend disaster-bi Dean (played by Tim DeKay who is no stranger to looking at his costar like he wants to tap that) is just being a slutty little bastard showing himself off to Henry because he can.
All this in a fictional town in Montana where homophobia doesn't exist and I just love that.

my heart broke & I cried so hard when Uncas & Alice died. their relationship was so sweet. they really cared about each other so much. it's so unfair.

also Nathaniel & Cora have become a new fictional couple for me to obsess over. the romance portion of this film was wonderful. they're so perfect.

This is my mother and that's my father. You were wrong. They wanted me. No. That's not-. It's what I found out. You were not taken care of. This is what they told, "Save these children. They need good homes. It's a mitzvah." You're not listening. That's my mother and father and they loved me. No. I was removed because the Government was taking Indian kids. We had a paper saying "unfit mother". You don't think Governments have lied before? [...] You can't just stick a new name on a person and pretend that nothing's happened. And you can't just take a five year old child away from their family and think that they're just gonna forget.

reblogging again about Big Eden made me think about some of the native american/canadian queer cinema (Indigiqueer Cinema) I've enjoyed.
Found a handy dandy Letterboxd List called Queer Native Pride and Beyond that has a whole bunch of movies I haven't seen yet, and below some of the ones I've gotten to experience (three out of four are linked):
Big Eden: a story about a gay man who returns home, because his grandfather gets sick. A sweet, beautiful man (played by Eric Schweig) starts to secretly make him food to help out. it's an amazing slice-of-life/subtly utopian bit of film-making, in that nobody in the town is homophobic, but being gay/shame is still a big part of the exploration within it.
Wildhood: a movie I got to watch at a film festival (always good to go to your local queer film festivals, many surprises to be had) and it blew me away. a roadtrip movie about two brothers who escape their abusive father to reconnect with the elder's mother and Mi'kmaq heritage. letting go of the instilled shame of being indigenous goes hand in hand with letting go of the instilled shame of being queer
Fancy Dance: this movie isn't about being queer, it's about the ongoing murder of indigenous woman and girls, and it's also a beautiful road trip film between an aunt and her niece, the former of whom is sure her sister is dead but unwilling to face it and to destroy her niece's innocence. Lily Gladstone plays the lead, who's also a lesbian, which is just a choice that works really well for the movie even if it's not the focal point (available on Apple+ TV and however you access movies, but would recommend throwing this one some views if you have access to official streaming)
Honey Moccasin: a 1998 movie i watched at another film festival (this time online), it's anarchic, it's a comedy, it's a thriller, it's got musical beats, it weaves in the intricacies of exploring Native identity and Queer identity, it's a surreal story about a few things, one of which include focus on a "closeted drag queen." it's a movie that beats against conventional film-making to create something not beholden to tropes and clichés forced upon narratives about being Native
#indigiqueer#queer cinema#indigiqueer cinema#big eden is interesting in the sense of wondering where it sits in esteem with native american communities#as it's not made/directed with a focus in mind to represent native american lives so much as the casting of eric schweig was#from the sounds of it very deliberate and He brought a weight to his role that was respected and wanted#but would it be considered indigiqueer by everyone (*everyone* is a weighted term tho also)#i do think it's different to say the miseducation of cameron post which is an ensemble piece that centres a white girl#in which one of the other characters is lakota#anyway i should look up how people talk about big eden#big eden#wildhood#fancy dance#honey moccasin
