Critic Reviews
-
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
The film presents a brief but intriguing biography of its subject.
-
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
An ingratiating and comprehensive portrait of the widely admired spiritual leader.
-
Jonathan Perry, Boston Globe
Parts of the film feel a bit too much like an infomercial for Ram Dass's latest book aimed at the boomer demographic. But mostly it's a work that, with humor, warmth, and intelligence, captures a life interestingly lived.
-
Mark Holcomb, Village Voice
A sober and affecting chronicle of the leveling effect of loss.
-
Edward Guthmann, San Francisco Chronicle
A generous, inspiring film that unfolds with grace and humor and gradually becomes a testament to faith.
