[Buddha-l] Films

[Kalwaitis, Carl]

I am presently teaching a course in philosophy of religion from a more or less global perspective.  At this point in the semester, we are in the process of comparing Buddhism with theistic religions.  Because the students have virtually no knowledge of Buddhism, our exploration will be, regrettably,  very basic and very general.  With this in mind, can anyone recommend a relatively accessible film that could serve as a vehicle for an admittedly superficial examination of some fundamental Buddhist principles.  I think there was a discussion about films on Buddha-L a while ago.  If so, I apologize for bringing this up again.  I would appreciate any suggestions.
