rena you deserved that nz award even the American academy award that year - no female actress was as good as you that year - you were amazing

Wish I could up-vote more then once. Rena was STUNNING in this. That last scene after Jake deals with Bully, and she take him on..... and then a crash-cut into the end credits with perhaps the best end-credits music I have EVER heard.

I hate when people compare these subhuman troglodytes to animals.....animals don't behave this way and are far more noble. They mate for procreation purposes only......

Along with Whale Rider, Once Were Warriors are among the stand-out movies in my collection. Awesome actors/storylines in both. Truly beautiful people who made some truly heart-breaking movies. They bring light onto so many once taboo subjects that affect the wonderful Maori people.

@8:31 Bader Drive Mangere before Paknsave. The old DB bar and hotel I remember where Paknsave is now. Mangere town Center with its big carpark before the Art Gallery and the OG sign. Road looks quieter then.

Wow. My family moved to Sydney in 1997 from Mount Roskill. We are Tongan and like South Auckland there was a Tongan community in Sydney (Mascot) where the Tongan Church was located. I was only 12 years old when we moved . Everything Ive seen in this video is exactly how I remembered Auckland...many good childhood memories 💙
@ltmg98322 күн бұрын
Yes! Sydney was Tongan central. Back in the 70’s and 80’s - a lot of the Tongan diaspora were within Eastern Suburbs, Inner West Sydney and the city areas towards Northern Beaches. Lots of other islanders too but they ventured out more towards the south and the west sides of Sydney. Lots of Samoans around Liverpool/Campbelltown/Penrith/Blacktown ways.

Touching documentary... and definitely opened up my perspective on samoa. Otara boy. I feel like these people are my older cousins and uncles. Good to see what life was like back then, I wish i could time travel to the past. Im grateful for those who have come before us and even more excited for those that are going to come after us. God bless.

Watching this as a Samoan in the US. My family is originally from Savai'i but I've never been cause my grandpa passed before I was born. It's cool to see how our Samoan heritage still unifies us abroad. From Samoans in Aotearoa to the ones here out West. I hope we can all maintain continuous connection to our homeland.

So on this Friday they showing this, my m8s went to the pub but i decided to go watch the film, it had warriors in the name, i thought i was a Hardman to (i thought :). It wasn't what i expected ..much better.. left an lasting impression. . . . . .always remember the shock to when Jake hits his lovely wife for the first time "bake the man some fucking eggs". btw : Jake was so good you felt the tension and danger when he was in shot.

There was also a reunion of Temuera Morrison and Rena Owen in a VERY unexpected way. Morrison played Jango Fett in the Star Wars prequels. In Attack of the Clones, he returns to the planet Kamino, where he was raised by aliens. One alien greets him at 0:47 in the video I link here with the words "Jake, welcome back." That alien was voiced by RENA OWEN! Funny how the script calls for her to call him Jake, given the shared movie history she has with Morrison and that name... kzread.info/dash/bejne/jGuX1LugYbqWl7g.html
