"spring, summer, fall, winter.. and spring"
(original title: "Bom yeoreum gaeul gyeoul geurigo bom")
I saw it yesterday.
It's a Korean movie about Buddhism.
Besides the thoughts behind Buddhism, it shows beautiful nature and slow continuity of it, and within it the human drama.
here's a link (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374546/)
This movie is impressive. It's slow, and because of that it gives you time to feel it, to feel the nature, to feel the whole beauty.
I was a tad sad to come out of the cinema to realise that I was back in the grey, dull city :-(

That does sound beautiful. Although I don't subscribe to it any more than I would other organised religions, Buddhism does have some ideas that I find appealing, Samsara and Anatta.
-
Though for some it may seem that Buddhism as a description how to live, and the symbolism of it, is the main aspect of the movie, I noticed other aspects, I was looking at the atmosphere, the surroundings (mostly nature) and the living conditions.
-
I seem to remember that Feudal Japan was Buddhist. And boy, did it make them peaceful.

Please! Don't let this thread moved to the philosophy/religion or politics CH!
Go see this movie instead and then think about what you see rather than think about what you think.

Seems to be worth a look!
