there is a movie about the historical Buddha, however, it was made in Bollywood and thus, does not get much attention in the west... eh.. perhaps some cultural bias in play... who can say?

the movie is called Siddhartha, by the way.

I have a Bollywood production of the last part of the Mahabarata - including the Bhagavad Gita (the reason I bought it) - on video. Bargain bin of a shop somewhere.

My crikey, it's a laugh. Has to be seen to be appreciated. The sheer utter amateurishness by Hollywood standards is absolutely hilarious. Pretty enjoyable.
