Movie Reviews of Little Buddha
Movie Review: A MUST WATCH FOR TODAY'S WORLD!
Summary: 5 Stars
While the Far-Right Evangilical Christians try to turn our Democracy into their Theocracy, this movie gives the Enlightened view of the Spiritual. It is of most important in today's takeover of so many in Congress, and the highjacking of America's Culture. This film demonstrates another point of view, rather than the myopic view of Christianity and it's "Supernatural Being." This is movie is very well done, with a wonderful group of actors, right down to the extras. I HIGHLY recommend this movie to people that think for themselves and question the belief system of which they were programmed.
Summary of Little Buddha
Keanu Reeves (SPEED) and Bridget Fonda (IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU) star in this motion picture spectacular from Academy Award(R)-winning director Bernardo Bertolucci (THE LAST EMPEROR). In a big American CIty, a boy and his family (Fonda and Chris Isaak -- SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) discover a story about a prince in a land of miracles. But the miracle becomes real when Tibetan monks appear, searching for their leader's reincarnation -- who they believe has been reborn in the boy. Suddenly, their worlds meet, leading the Americans on an extraordinary adventure!In many ways Little Buddha is a companion piece to Bernardo Bertolucci's The Last Emperor. A beautiful travelogue and history lesson unfolds in the two parts of this film: a historical text of Siddhartha (Keanu Reeves) and the contemporary quest of Lama Norbu (Ying Ruocheng), who believes he has found the reincarnation of his former teacher in a Seattle child. The ancient, magical tales sweep away the blas? contemporary action. Ruocheng's presence drives the story of discovery as the child learns about the teachings of Buddhism. A visual feast that will dazzle both young and old. In fact, were it not a religious icon, the youngsters might want Siddhartha dolls after viewing his magical on-screen adventures. Beautiful cinematography by Vittorio Storaro. --Doug Thomas
