This article is ridiculously naive. Herzog and the Dalai Lama are both extraordinarily complex individuals with complex motives for the things that they do publicly. It's a shame that the article does little more than make a vague gesture in the direction of explaining the content of the film. The Dalai Lama is clearly interested in reinforcing his international reputation as a way of keeping his enemies at a distance, and Herzog is interested in seeing how the Dalai Lama maintains the constructs of the personal mythology that surrounds him in disparate milieu. Herzog's films demand much more from an audience than a set of preconceived notions to be played on by the director. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.215.115.31 (talk) 20:54, 28 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
If you can expand and improve the description, go for it. Not sure what you mean with your last sentence- the description in the article now doesn't really present any "notions" at all. It's just a bare-bones description of some stuff that's in the movie. If you can include some deeper commentary from reliable sources that would help out a lot.
