I'm not sure what people expected when they watched this movie, but it didn't come. It was a powerful, honest, and very well made documentary that will stick with you for a long time. The story of the people who were being victimized by the scam and the people who were trying to help them is very well told and very compelling. I've always thought of the Chinese as being so gullible and not really taking the time to really think about what they were doing, but this movie makes you realize that the Chinese are actually very intelligent and have a great deal of wisdom and compassion. The documentary is very well edited and very well produced, and the story is compelling and well told. I really appreciated the honesty of the documentary, the humor of it, and the overall presentation of the film. It was very well made, and I recommend it to anyone who has a desire to know the truth about the scam and the people who were victimized by it. I also highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in seeing a documentary that is well made, that is well told, and that is honest and very well produced.

The man who lives on the edge of one's mind and the man who works behind it. The Doctor from India is a docu-drama movie in which Dr. Henry Corbin travels to India and meets the Indian students who have a deep fascination for mental health. They're mainly the children of schizophrenics, and they are fascinated by their famous hero Doctor Henry Corbin. This docu-drama film was pretty well made, and it is quite entertaining, but it was a little too slow for me. I did like that Corbin kept his philosophical and political views as well as his scientific background. I was very impressed by this docu-drama and I hope that more directors will make more like this in the future.

This is a fascinating documentary, on the life and work of the famous writer and director, Swami Vivekananda. It tells us the story of how he rose to the top of his profession, through the course of his life, through his teachings, through his actions and through his innovations, and how he saw it all in terms of changing the lives of people around the world. From his humble beginnings, to his rise to the top, this documentary follows his life, from his humble beginnings in an Indian village, through his rise to the top of the Indian government, through his work as a teacher and his activities in the Buddhist movement, to the supreme court, where he lost his case, and to his life as a powerful religious leader in India. This documentary, by and large, is about Swami Vivekananda, and there's a lot to learn from this documentary. There are various philosophical ideas, interesting anecdotes, interviews with some of the leading figures in his life, and there are also some incredible facts in this documentary, like how Swami Vivekananda suffered a stroke when he was a teenager, how he was known for his activism in the United States, and how he suffered a stroke in India. This documentary doesn't have much to do with religious topics, but it does give us some interesting facts about Swami Vivekananda. So, in general, it is an interesting documentary, on the life of the legendary Buddhist and spiritual leader, Swami Vivekananda.

This movie is about a man who is running away from his past and living the life he can't afford. It's not a documentary but it's about him and his family and it's really inspirational. I really liked it and it's really worth watching. The story is really interesting and the film is really great. It's not really about the doctor, it's about the family and how they cope with his past and what he's doing now. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see a really good movie about a real life story.

I had the chance to see this movie in my film class in college. I had been interested in this movie ever since I first saw it in the theater. I saw it again last week and I was blown away. This is the best movie I have ever seen. It's one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. It is about the history of Indian cinema and the impact it had on Hollywood. The film is beautifully shot and edited. The music is amazing. The acting is superb. The direction is very good. The dialog is very interesting and well written. The stories are all unique. The film is very informative and thought provoking. The story is not linear and it is never predictable. This movie is very informative and very thought provoking. The characters are very well written. The movie is about Indian cinema and the impact it had on Hollywood. It's not just a movie about Indian cinema. It is about Indian cinema in general. The movie is very informative and it's very well written. The film is very well made and it has a great score. I am a big fan of the movie and I am glad I watched it. I am very glad I watched this movie. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I don't know if I can say that I was aware of any of the characters and stories on the BBC's sci-fi channel before watching this film, so it is hard to judge. But I was pleasantly surprised, because I was surprised by how much of the material from the early 1990s was incorporated into the present day. I have been a fan of Neil Gaiman ever since I first read the Wormtongue stories and was somewhat skeptical of the information he had to share about the characters and events on this site. However, he did a great job of ensuring that the information was present on the screen, and that it was presented in a way that only involved the core cast, and of course the Doctor, which was actually a credit to both him and the production team. There were also some interesting back story details about the writer and illustrator of the original three stories, which were very interesting and valuable to the viewer, especially those who had not read the stories. It was a welcome addition to the timeline that most of the later stories were related to the history of the time travel paradoxes, which would be the subject of a later piece, but for now, the pieces that were most fascinating to me were the characters and story lines. One thing that had me wondering, and that was later pointed out by another reviewer, was that a lot of the information in the interview segments that were edited in order to make a good-sized movie, were actually plot points that didn't actually appear in the stories themselves. However, this seemed to be a common problem, and while I was pleased to see that some pieces were added to the timeline, I had no trouble in locating some of the bits I missed from the stories, and reading the comments about what the actual story was, which led me to figure out that the version I watched was the longer version of a TV movie with shorter segments that were only re-cut for this film. The questions that still lingered, and that I still want to know the answer to, were where there was no mention of why a story was related to another story, or why the Doctor, or any other character, was called "Doctor". Also, why is it that the Doctor is on the screen in one scene and in the next, and the black and white version of the first episode was not, yet they do show a clip of the young boy in the ship, and why was it only in the television movie version of the first episode, and not in the longer version? The only other point I would like to bring up is why the Doctor is seen holding the laptop computer? This is where the production team might have added a lot more information, and why were there no other pieces from the episodes? Any information I can gather about these will be posted in the comments section, but to sum up, it was a good addition to the timeline. I do think that some more stories of the second Doctor could be done, and have not really been seen since the TV version, but I would still like to see a feature film based on the Doctor's role in the last three stories, which I am sure that both of the two lead actors would be interested in. I hope they do make a new film. They just seem to be missing a bigger piece to it.

When I saw the first trailer for this film, I wasn't exactly excited about it, but I saw it anyway. The movie is an attempt to re-create a portion of the history of India from 1879 to 1914. The film does a good job of showing the attempts of the British government to keep the country from descending into chaos, however there are a few historical inaccuracies in this film. One is that the British government tried to suppress any Indian nationalism. Another is that the British did in fact use Indian women to become soldiers in their military campaigns. As a result, the women of India became a significant part of the British army. The other inaccuracy is that the BBC didn't air a single Indian news bulletin during the first few years of British rule. This was not a case of bias, but rather simply a matter of time and budget. Despite these errors, the film does a good job of presenting the history of India, and also shows the resistance to the British, and the economic problems of India that the British had to deal with. The film also has some funny moments, and a touching scene with India's prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Overall, this film is worth seeing. It is more of a history lesson than a documentary.

Hate to say it but I think the editing of this movie could have been better. There are parts of the movie that are boring and that really could have been cut out to make it more interesting. I don't know about you but I think the editing really slows down the pace of the movie, and I hate when that happens. Still, I think the movie did a good job at showing the reasons why we hate the government and the people who run the country and how they would really like to see us suffer. We have movies like this out there that actually say something about government and the way we should live our lives. My rating would be a 7 out of 10 for this one. I guess I will give it a 7 and I guess it's a good movie.

He had been a great young man and he was made the Doctor of the future in 1951. The film shows how he became the Doctor. But you don't really know anything about him and he doesn't talk about himself that much. I mean he's not the best scientist and a lot of people think he's a bit crazy. He's also known to be rather emotional and he has a lot of problems. I mean when he goes to sleep in a spaceship he does it all alone. So he could really be a bit of a dork but you have to remember he's the Doctor. Now if you watch this film with a bit of curiosity then you will find out that he had a romantic relationship with one of his students. And he also found out that his teacher died and when he wakes up he realizes that his teacher was in his bed. And he did some science experiments and the story he tells is pretty interesting. So when I was watching this film I kept asking myself: how many other things could be shown in this film? Well, I couldn't find out that much, but there's a lot of neat stuff, including some Star Trek stuff. So I say go and watch it! 7 out of 10

A very well made documentary about a man who, for some unknown reason, has become a legend. The film shows the Doctor from India as he works with the poor people of India. It's a very moving documentary, and the documentary is worth watching. The documentary is not a very well done one, and the editing is sometimes choppy. The documentary is well worth watching, but the editing and the editing of the documentary is a bit choppy. This is a good documentary, and worth watching.

The movie is not about the invention of a machine. It is about the technology that shaped our world. The story is very simple: 2 generations of the most remarkable inventions of the 20th century. The other reviewers here are exaggerating. I will not repeat it. The invention of the television set, the jet engine and the TV set itself. The story is about how such technology was created and how the end product is created. The film is very simple. Its main aim is to show that the technology itself is not important. What matters is what is created with it. The whole movie is about this idea and it has been done very well. If the film is about TV, then you can easily guess that the technology of the day was the one that is shown in the movie. The story is told very easily and you would not feel like you had to read a book. You would have the same sensation as if you were watching a movie. The music by Legrand is also very good. It is a combination of rock, classical, jazz, jazzy and progressive. The music of the two directors are not too much different from each other. To me it sounded like they did not listen to each other but instead did it on their own. It was just as I imagined it, just as I thought it should sound. I also liked the music of the actress from the movie. She does not sound like a teenage girl but more like a woman. She does not sound like a typical popular actress. Overall, the movie is very enjoyable and informative. A must watch if you are interested in the history of the technology and technology of today.

I had heard about this documentary from a friend who had seen it and it had made an impression on me. I had been told that the title was an homage to the original TV series. It is. The Doctor from India is the story of the original Doctor from India, played by Sir Anthony Hopkins. The story was a bit different from the original, but still very much a Doctor from India story. This is a very interesting story about the Doctor from India and his life. The story was told in a very interesting way and I enjoyed the way it was told. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes Doctor Who or Indian culture. I think it is a great movie and I would recommend it to anyone.

The only reason I watched the movie is because of the cover and because it's one of the greatest-looking Doctor Who TV episodes ever. The best part about this movie is the great actors in it. If you love Doctor Who and want to see something fun, watch this!

There are some extremely talented people in this world and their contributions are sometimes overlooked. This documentary does not shy away from its most obvious critics: "The Doctor from India" is a dramatization of how the Maharishi, who promotes Western psychology as well as Eastern mysticism, has changed the perception of a few "eccentric" young Indian doctors. This doc is a good description of the problems the Maharishi faces, and it's important to remember that his influence is primarily a Western product. (I have an old copy of the film, and the "entertainment" is really lousy.) One comment I noticed in the DVD commentary is that one of the main characters, Mr. Tanaji, is supposed to be an Indian living in London. I think that Mr. Tanaji is supposed to be one of the "eternal" Maharishi "worshipers" (not real Sikhs) in India. I think that Mr. Tanaji's life would be easier if he were an Indian living in London, but I doubt he would be described as such in the film. In any case, "The Doctor from India" is a good documentary that gives the viewer a good introduction to the Maharishi phenomenon, the modern psychology of spirituality, and how Western psychology is actually in some ways (not as completely as the Maharishi himself would have liked to believe) the basis for what the Maharishi called the "science of enlightenment."

Some people say that this is a bad movie. Yes it is, but it is entertaining and should be viewed as such. The producers managed to make this movie a comedy that works as a good family entertainment for all ages. This movie really makes you laugh at some parts and feel bad at others, but you have to see the movie for yourself to really understand it. And it will blow you away at the end. My rating for this movie is 7 out of 10.

I saw this film at a screening in Amsterdam, and it was an interesting experience. I think it is a good movie for people who are interested in the history of the movie industry, and it is interesting to see the different ways of making movies. One of the things that really surprised me was the way that the director managed to get so many different actors to play their parts. It is a very impressive feat. In the end, I think this movie is worth seeing. It is definitely a must-see for anyone who is interested in the history of cinema.
