They are naturals at acting, not because they're good at lying but because they can't be phony.
Himalaya does for yak caravans what "Red River" did for cattle drives: it sees them as the stuff of epic conquest.
Captured extraordinary performances from a cast of non-actors, as well as magnificent images of a vast landscape.
A film of unusual visual beauty and enormous intrinsic interest.
It's the tortoise and the hare, Nepalese-style, and it's surprisingly dramatic.
Himalaya doesn't need a traditional story line to transport the viewer into another, fascinating world.
Somehow, in spite of the stunning vistas and some witty and affecting moments, the story seems to unfold at a distance; the human drama is diminished by the setting rather than amplified by it.
