In 1999, Donahue read about an audition that was being advertised in "Backstage" magazine for actors with strong improvisational abilities,
A Man Called Horse (film) said: "As we learned from movies like "A Man Called Horse", the more 'accurate' and 'authentic' a film is said to be, the more extravagant it is likely to be in at least some aspects of its misrepresentation of Indians." It was the first American Western to attempt to portray the Sioux as the protagonists and eulogize their culture, but fell short with Native American audiences because it still had leading white actors as the main characters for the film to appeal to white audiences. "A Man Called Horse" was released to DVD by Paramount Home Entertainment on 29 April
