This doesn't quite get it, especially, Rick, since you haven't even seen the film. David's young and can definitely be manipulative, but his film is really a fairly good documentation of his experience, as it unfolded, of David Lynch, TM, Maharishi and the TMO. It's also a lot about him and his girlfriend. To me, it comes off as pretty sincere. But I think the act of filming it all and doing the research to make the film accelerated his disillusionment, one might say, understandably. Can you imagine starting TM not so long ago and then doing all the research you can to find out everything you can about everything TM related? I don't think he set out to do a hatchet job, nor do I really feel the film is a hatchet job. But, quite possibly, by the time he spoke with you and me, his disillusionment was well under way and he was more in the negative mode than the positive. I wish the darned thing would come out in the US so we could all have a better idea of what we're talking about. The MUM student government actually showed it on campus.
