... View Morea film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreGive Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh some serious time on YouTube first, before watching. None of the episodes gives real insight into his person nor into his philosophy. Because of this, most viewers will picture him as an idiot or a charlatan and will not understand his followers. By ignoring the protagonist and his leitmotiv 'Wild, wild country' is just about rednecks and hippies. Deep in our hearts we know that it is the bad guys who win, so there is this melancholy in de the end; this strange longing to this unknown world of... The documentary also reminds me of the story of one devil alarming another devil with the news of a newborn messias who is preaching truth, freedom & love. 'We have to do something about it!' The other devil says. 'No need for that!' interrupts a third devil: 'He has followers already!'
... View MoreThis was an very good documentary but I did have some problems with it. The people in the cult giving the interviews were never questioned on what they had done. They were just telling their story and were never questioned about the poor treatment of the locals in Antelope. The real footage was excellent and the music was also perfectly fitted. I am shocked this happened and I never knew about it. 8/10
... View MoreAbsolutely Amazing Documentary, the emotions, gripping soundtrack, Captivating footages about Rajneeshees, the peaceful, free loving Sanyasins from all over the world. Its sad that How those old bigoted Conservative people at antelope targeted, provoked, tried to destroy Rajneeshees and Rajneeshpuram, along with U.S. govt. from the pressure of conservative Churches witch hunted Rajneeshees and this exposed their hypocrisy, we feel sad about the nice Rajneesh Lawayer Prem Niren, and at the end of the story which is very emotional.
... View MoreIt is fascinating! The idea that something that started from such a spiritual and loving place became so corrupt and violent!!!
