An Unjustly Undervalued Scorsese Picture
Scorsese had dealt with spirituality in subtle ways in many of his films and it is one of the issues that he kept coming back again. So it is not a surprise that a director who worked with brutal and violent films involving gangsters and psychopaths had made his second work on a great spiritual figure. It could be an attempt to wash away the blood and sins of his previous films or an act of redemption that would be repeated years later by “Silence” after the carnal and materialistic “The Wolf of Wall Street” – redemption, after all, is one of the goals of many Scorsese characters, so it is not a coincidence that his filmography had somewhat uncannily mirrored the structure of his films.The film chronicles the early life of the 14th Dalai Lama – from discovering him into the far reaches of Tibet to his exile to India. Shot by legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins and superbly scored by Philip Glass, the visual and music are rich and absorbing creating a trance-like state for a few patient viewers. But just like “The Last Temptation of Christ” that was riddled by controversies, “Kundun” was not a fan-favorite and was unjustly undervalued.
