**_There’s more to life than rashly killing people with a spear_** In 1956, several American missionaries deep in the Amazon basin try to contact the warring Waodani tribe, who live near the Curaray River in eastern Ecuador. Thirty-eight years later, the son of one of the missionaries goes back to the area to reacquaint with the people he met as a child. “End of the Spear” (2005) is a drama with some thrills based on the true story. Movies with a similar milieu include “Fitzcarraldo,” “The Emerald Forest,” “At Play in the Fields of the Lord,” “Medicine Man” and “The Lost City of Z,” even “The Mosquito Coast.” Sure, this one is more ‘faith-based’ due to the subject matter, but the director lets the facts speak for themselves with no glossing over and no sanitizing; just the facts.
