A sentimentalized Jung, 10 February 2003
Author: epetrov from Philadelphia, PA



A sentimentalized Jung, this documentary uses all the recent war in Afghanistan cliches. We have the wounded children, the burka-clad women, the sad-eyed amputees, all topped with an oversized dollop of Patch Adams' 60's style anti-war rhetoric. It's an interesting humanitarian concept- sending clowns to a war ravaged country to cheer the suffering inhabitants, but this film coverage teeters into sentiment and leaves the viewer with a vaguely uneasy feeling that the subject is being exploited.
