Alone it encapsulates the wisdom of many of the finest epics. Here is a fascinating interpretation of the film, scene by scene, which I strongly recommend: http://jahtruth.net/flute.htm I would not be surprised if this film steadily grows in popularity and becomes one of the most meaningful works of the 20th century. from the teachings of Lao Tzu: Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it. The soft overcomes the hard; the gentle overcomes the rigid. Everyone knows this is true, but few can put it into practice. This film does. Agree completely with above comment.. this just might be the most underrated film of all time. the message transcends anything I’ve seen on film.

from the teachings of Lao Tzu:

Nothing in the world
is as soft and yielding as water.
Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible,
nothing can surpass it.

The soft overcomes the hard;
the gentle overcomes the rigid.
Everyone knows this is true,
but few can put it into practice.

This film does.

I am writing this in September 2010 as I have been carrying out a quick search on the Silent Flute - and Jeff Cooper (Cord). Surprisingly it looks like a new version of the Silent Flute is to be made - excellent!! Also looks like it is virtually impossible to find anything about Jeff Cooper - amazing. Congratulations Jeff on managing to keep such a low profile in this electronic age - that really is quite some achievement!! Whatever the critics have to say about your acting in the Silent Flute Jeff, I thought it fitted the role perfectly - great performance.
