The Indian in the cupboard was considered by critics to be a propaganda based movie brainwashing the youth to believe in the natural superiority of the white race over Native Americans. The benevolence of the American child and the fact that he not only brought the Indian to life, but was responsible for his well-being resulted in a debate.
However, the movie is based on a children's book that was written years earlier, and controversy can arise on anything, given there are enough people with different opinions to share their views.
