Zen: The Best of Alan Watts (1994)
Member Rating:
Alan Watts did much to popularize Zen philosophy and meditation techniques. In the process, Watts himself became an American icon. This documentary presents excerpts from a number of the talks that the Zen student and practitioner gave on the subject. In his inimitable conversational style, Watts addresses the core beliefs of the Zen Buddhist tradition in a way that makes them accessible to his American audience. Question-and-answer sessions capture the intelligence, erudition, and wit of this Western proponent of an ancient Eastern philosophy. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
