'The Garden' is Another Eco-Borenew

'The Exiles' Presents a Regrettably Ignored View of L.A. Life and American Historynew

Mackenzie's sparkling, moody black-and-white images of what might be called the Native American Diaspora (following a generation of Indians who moved off the reservation and migrated to post-war Los Angeles), depict a classic American story of aspiration and tragedy. It is beautiful and devastating.
