Factual & fascinating - Life of Buddha review by RL

Spoiler Alert
04/11/2012

It accepts only what is actually recorded about the great man as actual fact. Some are presented, but you know they must not be taken literally, such as hundreds of arrows shot at him without even one striking him. It's low on dramatisation, with a few scenes minimally acted to convey events. Mostly examination of archeology & legacy of current Himalayan Buddhist life. Clearly a fine documentary, it does not pretend to be anything else.
