I used to have an issue with the movie in my teenage years where I thought people were being exploited. I watched it again on DVD and in the extras there was a short doc from the late 90’s ~ early 2k and while maybe it was propaganda my mind was changed a bit. It really was a wholesome comedy. There are a few jokes that may have adults laughing and fly over a young child’s head. I was always left with a positive view of the native actors and their culture. If anything it shows how a person should remain humble and do the right thing while not acting like the people from the world.
