Hei Tiki I am proud to be a descendant of the great Alexander Markey. He did this movie Hei Tiki and he did great things in film. What a way to archive culture. My mother gave this film to keepers in New Zealand. With whatever controversy it is good that the people have the history of their ancestors and some of the beautiful culture. I keep his other films in cold storage in Hollywood that he shot in India. I wish there was more positive that was archived about him. it is always sad and is the controversy. Not enough have researched him to find out the good that he left behind and did in those times. I have so much more in print and beautiful writings that he made. I am proud that he was my ancestor and that I am his descendant carrying on some of his spiritual work. There is more for anyone who's truly interested in knowing or seeing what else Alexander created. And that he deserves the be recognized for the great things he did in film.
