Older Than America (aka American Evil) (DVD)(2008)

Kill the Indian. Save the Man. Bradley Cooper (The Hangover, the A-Team) stars in this mystery about a geologist tracking down the epicenter of an earthquake that leads him to an Indian reservation. Actress Georgina Lightning (TV's the West Wing and Walker, Texas Ranger) makes her co-writing and directing debut with this passion project while also starring alongside Cooper as Rain, a woman beset by troubling visions from the past. Both their journeys lead to an abandoned schoolhouse and shocking secrets - secrets that corrupt politicians and businessmen want to pave over. But the spirits won't be silenced. Like the Oscar-nominated Doubt and acclaimed Canadian drama the Boys of St. Vincent, this powerful film turns a painful chapter of US history into a compelling, piercing drama. The award-winning cast also includes Adam Beach (Flags of Our Fathers), Chris Mulkey (TV's 24) and the great Wes Studi (Avatar, Dances with Wolves).
