| | The DVD Journal: Kundun |
 | | Kundun is urged by his monks to flee the country before his is killed, but he stays with his people until he has no other options. | | | Kundun starts in 1937, four years after the death of the 13th Dalai Lama, as Buddhist monks locate his reincarnated spirit in a Tibetan toddler born on the Chinese border. | | | Two years later, at the age of six, he is taken to the capital of Lhasa and paraded as the reborn spiritual leader, Kundun, "the compassionate one." Even though still a child, he assumes this role naturally and gracefully. |

| | Kundun is the story of the 14th Dalai Lama, the divine spiritual leader of Tibet considered by his followers to be the reincarnation of Buddha. | | | He is found in 1937 as a precocious 2-year-old boy named Tenzin Gyatso, living with his simple family in a small Tibetan village. | | | Even at age 5, the young 14th Dalai Lama (center) is the spiritual leader of Tibet. |

| | Kundun is a poetic approach to understanding not the events of the fourteenth Dalai Lama, but the psyche of the person and the spiritual beliefs of all Monks. | | | Once Kundun arrives at the Monastery where he is to be schooled and spiritually prepared to be the religious leader of the Tibetan people, he hears Monks arguing over where Kundun “chose” to be re-born. | | | One Monk says, “it seems he chose to be born write on the border of China, as if to say this is Tibet, all of it belongs to me.” This is the first exposure the young 14th Dalai Lama has to the problem that will soon ensue his country. |

| | Kundun has a dream where he is surrounded by hundreds of dead and rather bloody monks lying on the ground around him. | | | Soon he and his family move to the holy city of Lhasa where the masters teach him the ways of being Tibet's spiritual leader. | | | The interesting part of that is that we're told early on that Dalai Lama means "ocean of wisdom," but the spiritual leader takes a long time to use that wisdom to make a choice. |

| | Kundun's mother, by the way, is wonderfully played by Tencho Gyalpo, the real Dalai Lama's niece, who is, like almost all the cast, not a professional actor but a Tibetan living in exile. | | | Starting with the sand mandala we see in the opening credits, "Kundun" (the title is the honorific given the Tibetan spiritual leader; it means the Presence [of the Buddha]) is a very different picture in both tone and style, contemplative where "Last Temptation" was fevered. | | | Of all filmmakers who've tackled religious subjects, Scorsese must be the least hamstrung by reverence, the most convincing at giving us religious figures as recognizable human beings, not distant godheads. |

| | The boy is taken away to be trained by monks and scholars for his role as Tibet's spiritual and political leader. | | | This presentation of the childhood and adolescence of the fourteenth Dalai Lama is memorable mainly for its moral message about the courage it takes to adhere to the Buddhist principle of nonviolence in the face of so much suffering and injustice. | | | In a brief encounter with Mao, the young Tibetan leader recognizes that his society of spirit and nonviolence clashes with China's culture of materialism and militarism. |

| | At a midpoint in Martin Scorsese's ``Kundun,'' the 14th Dalai Lama reads a letter from the 13th, prophesying that religion in Tibet will be destroyed by China--that he and his followers may have to wander helplessly like beggars. | | | There is a strong impulse toward the spiritual in Scorsese, who once studied to be a priest, and ``Kundun'' is his bid to be born again. | | | You must know what to do.'' This literal faith in reincarnation, in the belief that the child at the beginning of ``Kundun'' is the same man who died four years before the child was born, sets the film's underlying tone. |

| | While Kundun is a beautiful documentary-of-sorts feature on the life of the fourteenth Dalai Lama and Buddhism, in terms of storyline and character development, it definitely is not one of Martin's crowning achievements. | | | The entire life story of Kundun, from being a worshipped toddler to being an exiled adult, is told through his eyes - the eyes of His Holiness (the fourteenth Dalai Lama). | | | His camera work, depicting a young Kundun hiding under his red robe, not only shows us that a Tibetan's garb has a low thread-count, but also that Scorsese is as cinematically clever as they come. |

| | Kundun rejects conflict (as Buddhism itself does), and, since we Westerners demand conflict in our drama, there's a danger of chalking Kundun up as another noble failure. | | | The Kundun I saw is Scorsese's best movie since GoodFellas -- a dreamlike and poetic vision of becalmed Buddhist life. | | | It's closer to Scorsese's other spiritual study, The Last Temptation of Christ, in which the savage red landscapes were a battleground for Jesus's inner conflicts. |

| | The nondenominational streak customarily shown when a mainstream movie talks about God keeps Kundun from perhaps the most interesting part of Tibetan Buddhism: its mythology about death. | | | Melissa Mathison's script is well-written enough to avoid any howlers, but Kundun is a dry, passive movie, and you wonder if the current film-industry reverence toward this particular religion is just lingering sentiment for Lost Horizon. | | | Still, one hopes the people in the film industry remember D.T. Suzuki's caution that physical comfort shouldn't be confused with enlightenment--and remember also Jamie Lee Curtis' comment in A Fish Called Wanda that the central message of Buddhism isn't "Every man for himself." |
