Choose one movie and discuss how it relates to some of the major themes related to Buddhism raised in this class.

Choose one movie “NOT specified” and discuss how it relates to some of the major themes related to Buddhism raised in this class.

Avoid using documentaries about Buddhism for this assignment.

Those are too ‘on the nose’. Instead, I’d like you to demonstrate your creativity by noticing elements of Buddhism in ‘Hollywood’, or ‘Blockbuster’ movies. Be sure to support your thoughts with specific examples from both the movie as well as the Buddhist theme(s) you find it is related.

I do not want you to choose documentaries for this assignment, but would rather you analyze normal ‘blockbuster’ type films in order to demonstrate both creative and critical analysis.

This assignment should also be about 1000 words (4 pages).
