Show Armand Assante as Belizaire By Terry Orme Tribune Staff Writer PARK CITY The thing that strikes you after spending a day or two here at the United States Film Festival is the diver, i y of stories being told, the different worlds into which these filmmakers take you There's Wayne W'ang's affectionate "Dim Sum, a funny and poignant portrait of a young San Francisco woman who must choose between her own independence and the assistance she provides her widowed mother Wang takes you inside this extended family like few filmmakers do. He gives you a sense of these people, their culture, their worldview. At the same time, he never reduces them to symbols. It is an intimate, entertain- - ing work. Then theres the documentary "Contrary Warriors, a film directed by three Montana women Connie Po-tePamela Roberts and Beth Ferris. It tells a remarkable story about a remarkable man Robert Yellow-tai- l Yellowtail was 97 when this film was made He was near the end of a long life devoted to championing the lands and heritage of his people the Crow Indians The film documents Yellowtail s public service, which began in 1910 when he traveled from his home in Montana to Washington, D.C. to argue the case of his people whose lands were about to be put up for sale. His foe in this political battle was a Montana congressman. Yellowtail won. As time went on, Yellowtail would win some and lose others "Contrary Warriors is a moving, sympathetic, and at times uplifting portrait of the spirit of a people. Contrary Warriors is preceded at the festival by a beautifully shot, short film called Cowgirls. Made film by Nancy Kelly, this tells three different stories about modern-dacowgirls. The portraits that emerge are of women (and girls) ranging in age from 8 to 68 who go about their ranch jobs with savvy and skill. They handle cutting horses with dexerity, buck bales of alfalfa and smile about it. They work with animals and the land because they love it. I dont really know how I got this job," says a husband, as he cooks breakfast as his wife goes about the morning chores in the cold morning outside. She's just better at milking y The Salt Lake Tribune, har-acte- co-sta- Beli-zair- co-st- up." 1938. Another film playing here this week, Glen Pitres Belizaire: The Cajun, also takes audiences to a corner of America that they likely have never visited before.

They were living in what you would call poverty, and it's not that's what blew my mind all. are so These at people poverty resourceful they can make a bridle out of a piece of rug They can make anything out of anything Assante speaks with a convincing Cajun accent in the film. "The truth of the matter is, there is no definitive Cajun accent. You get 10 different Cajuns together and they all sound like they are from separate corners of the earth. It's a blend of French. West Indian, Italian, Ameria blend of many culcan Ind'an tures When I was interviewing them, it would take 10 minutes for me to get into their speech patterns and decipher what they were saying."

This was an opportunity to explore a facet of American cultural life in a depth that is uncommon To me the importance of the independent film movement is that, as an actor, it offers me an opportunity to do a role that I know I will never have the chance to do under the auspices of a studio." In the final analysis, however, Assante believes that working under such restrictions was worth it.
