Kundun

	Touchstone; rental pricing
	Feature; PG-13
Director:	Martin Scorsese
Cast:	Tenzin Thuthob Tsarong, Pobert Lin and Gyurne Tethong

It's the Dalai Lama vs. Chairman Mao in Scorsese's sprawling tribute to the history of Tibet. With its kaleidoscopic cinematography, the film is a visual marvel, a meditation on pacificism and spiritual unity. While some of its grandeur fades on the small screen, the effort nonetheless stands as a thought-provoking and well-acted achievement in the director's oeuvre.
