Title: Not what I had expected
Product review: I am a huge fan of Campbell. That being said, I was a bit disappointed by this DVD. First, I thought it would be an in depth discussion of "The Hero's Journey". which is a truly important concept in my view. When I determined that it was more biographical (I should have paid more attention to the description), I settled in for learning more about the man. Although there were some interesting biographical scenes, the movie lacked focus as it bounced around between early years, an award ceremony, and lectures/seminars with student groups. I would have been happy with an in depth biographical study, or a concentration on the ideas in the seminars. A much better DVD is Finding Joe, an exquisite analysis of his ideas.
