Thanks for sharing it, i cut off the bad scenes in the film, and glad you sharing it on your UA-cam, thanks for appreciating my little work putting subtitles and delete bad scene of the film. Thanks for sharing. FAAFETAI LAVA
Read this book a while back and I was marvelled by the talent this gentleman from our shores hold! Albert Wendt has both art and creativity! I was told by my professor then that he was an atheist. So am interested to hear from him why?
His daughters books are enjoyable as well. As for the atheist part. I'm curious as well. Sometimes I wonder if it's due to bigotry. A person can praise God with one mouth, but with their tongue... slice into another.
What does it matter sione Ioane ?? My grandfather's name is Sione born and raised in Samoa My father's name Tupou alot of Tongans are also named Tupou we r 1 no matter what names All islanders need to appreciate each other STOP BRINGING THE WHITE HATE INTO OUR CULTURES WE R TO BE MORE WISER AND FULL OF KINDNESS HUMBLENESS WITH INTEGRITY AND HONOR WAKE UP AND ENDURE ALL WE NEED TO BIND TOGETHER AS 1 AND LEAVE RACISM OUT OF OUR ISLANDS AND CULTURE IT DOES NOT BELONG HERE WE NEED TO BE BETTER AND GREATER THAN THOSE WHOM DONT WANT US TO BE OUTSIDE OUR CULTURES AND HOMES WITH LOVE ACCEPTANCE AND MUCH ENDURANCE CLOSE TO OUR CULTURES AS WELL AS TO THOSE WHOM ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO ACCEPT RESPECT AND LEARN OUR CULTURES WELCOME THEM WITH OPEN ARMS AND HEARTS ❤❤💪💪😎😎
Typical samoan mothers. And you wonder why its so hard to honor thy mother and fathers. some mothers intentionally destroy their childrens lives. so sad.
wow that bloke is the most irritating character I've ever seen in a movie, that first interaction with the white girl wth was that, absolute cringe fest
A'e sole, 'Sione' is an alternative version of the biblical name 'John' in the Samoan language. I know of toeaina from my ekalesia called Sione & also Sione's\Ioane's during my time at Avele kolisi. Although Sione is the Tongan transliteration of John - it is also used in Tokelau, Niue, & Tuvalu as alternate uses for 'John'.
@@rogue_lukoWTF you on about? It's not the alternative at all. LMFAO. The samoan translation for John is ioane, the togan translation is sione, which many other island nations use as well, some swapping the s for t, it's a valid question he's playing a Samoa therfore his name should have been ioane, not sione.
Honestly? Really? You want to be angry about a name when you say FFS haha Sorry doks, it is both a Tongan and Samoan name, not just Tongan. Who cares anyway, just pretend his name was John 🤣🤣

The palagi woman is beautiful 😘😘😘😘😘
It was painful to watch Sione's struggles. But, it was truly a great movie.
Best film ever ❤❤

Sione is a Tongan name for John why isn’t his name Ioane ? Ffs

@@StanslaMichael why are you mad though? I've had uncles much older than I, who are Siones.. I've always wondered about this though.
@@kigitau LMFAO not mad, that's you reading way too much into a comment and getting hurt by it.
