BIO Channel is showing a two-hour special featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews with cast and crew on Wednesday, August 17 at 8PM ET / 7PM CT / 9PM PT. Enduring a production fraught with weather delays, critical backlash and a nearly fatal on-set accident, director/star Kevin Costner never lost his focus and delivered a sweeping, heartfelt, three-hour epic that would become the box office surprise of 1990. "Dances with Wolves: The Inside Story" features brand-new interviews with Costner and his crew bringing viewers inside the tumultuous story of Dances with Wolves, the revisionist western that would take in over $400 million worldwide and win seven Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director.

Seen the Dances with Wolves-Behind the Scenes last night and enjoyed it very much. I have been to South Dakota and visited the area where the film was made. Will this show be on DVD?
Not sure John but I was planning to check the Biography website because they do sell DVDs of their programs. The Biography they did of Kevin is sold out unfortunately but I'm hoping they will sell this DWW special for those who don't have cable and who can't see U.S. tv programs. It is playing again today and tomorrow. (18th and 19th) http://www.biography.com/search/schedule.do?keywords=Inside+Story
I feel that this film sheds a great light on the beautiful Native American people. I have great respect for this culture. I have had Native American friends from the time I was very young. It was nice to see the recognition of such a great people. To share time and space with this culture is very rewarding and has made me whole. I only have one word of advice to non-indian people. The clothing that they wear during pow wows is called regalia or outfit, please do not call it costume. Costume is something you wear pretending to be someone else. The outfit/regalia represent who they are!
