Another Native actor has hit the big time. Dead Man, a "Cannes"film,

made it's Canadian debut in Toronto and actor Gary Farmer shines in his

latest co-starring role as a man called Nobody.

Farmer is a Cayuga from the Grand River territory situated in

southwestern Ontario and is best known for his role as Philbert Bruno in

television, and film. However, this "off beat" western just might be a
