December 1st, 2008
From the Director’s Cut: The Spice Route
Denis and Francis retrace Marco Polo’s travels along the Spice Route in India.
AH INDIA!!!Beware the casual tourist, She can chew you up a spit you out – Every possible thing you can imagine is happening everywhere all the time – often in the same place – from the most horrific, degrading,poverty,despair, slavery and human suffering , to the most beautiful, transcendent,spiritual, sublime, cosmic, truth!!!
“India you get the journey your ready for”!!!
-India you gotta Love it……changed my life!!!
Recently viewed the six part series on PBS, “The story of India “, hosted by Micheal Woods of England . I’ve been watching his many different historical shows over the years & I have to say He is Great ,smart,insightful & you can really tell he loves his subject matter and what he’s doing, ie…. sharing the ancient past . But the
truth of the matter is unless you love that sort of thing he can be abit stuffy and boring in the way only the English can . Thats why I have to say that Denis Belliveau and Francis Odonnell are a breath of fresh air in the stagnant world
of history based documentaries. These guys are so real it hurts ,when you laugh with them,when you cry for them, when you root for them , It hurts because like nothing else I’ve seen they open their Hearts and take you with them !!! Where to next ? I’m ready !!
Ahhhh. Feel like I’ve been allowed to step into Heaven for a moment! Thank you Francis and Denis for the PBS marvelous video of your Marco Polo Trip. Magnificent. Ohh, and even Marco Polos Will.
Used to live in Woodhaven, Queens. Am also an artist as well a nurse. Will take a look at your book. What about your art???
