I think it's actually a dramatization of his life, but yes, I really liked it. I heard that the Chinese government banned Scorsese from coming into the country or something like that after the movie was released (there's probably more details at Wikipedia :P). It's still so cool to see how the Dalai Lama is determined b/c they go around and have children choose from a collection of toys... I wonder, what was the authority in Tibet before the Dalai Lama? :D
