The taking
2023
DVD
A radical examination of Monument Valley's representation in cinema and advertising since John Ford's Stagecoach (1939), The Taking scrutinizes how a site located on sovereign Navajo land came to embody the fantasy of the "Old West," replete with self-perpetuating falsehoods, and why it continues to hold mythic significance in the global psyche.
