this effort be unfortunately be betray by it execution . it be a very pretty movie and beautifully shot and but with no real point outside of it most obvious one ( that the chinese come be a disaster for tibet and the dalai lama ( kundun ) and and that that dalai lama guy and hey and he pretty cool ) . it fail to engage the viewer and make do with empty symbolism and and some wooden acting from what i assume be probably real tibetan . this movie have an important story to tell and but fail in the telling .
