Lee Tamahori, 1994) The Once Were Warriors is beautifully and powerfully casted film, directed by Lee Tamahor and casted by Temuera Morrison (Jake Heke), Rena Owen (Beth Heke) and Mamaengaroa Kerr-Bell (Grace Heke).

This thing is indicating an incredible woman who have many monsters behind her, and she walks through them. It means that she killed the monsters, overcame

she describes a new and progressive warrior woman that uses her femininity and sexuality to appear strong. This woman is pageant-queen beautiful, has a voluptuous scantily clad body, yet is girly in a way that fights gender normatives and dismantles the patriarchy. Warrior women have no need for relationships, and always knows what to say. Melissa McBride’s depiction of character “Carol Peletier” in “The Walking Dead” defies these standards of what a warrior woman needs to be in order to be successful

This was a journey of self-discovery for Maxine but interesting enough, the first thing the old woman, the one who trains Fa Mu Lan to become a warrior, tells her to learn “how to be quiet” (23). So basically the main asset, being the code of silence, joins together with what a woman is expected to do in Chinese culture

Film: Once were warriors. The tough, muscular characters in Lee Tamahori's ferocious "Once Were Warriors" are primed for fighting. And they need no battlefield: their hostilities are played out in the bedroom, in front of the children or in crowded bars. In his visceral first feature, Mr. Tamahori offers social realism with a savage kick, depicting Maori New Zealanders whose ties to their own history have been destroyed.
