4.0 out of 5 stars
Fascinating glimpse of a great man,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hasten Slowly: The Journey of Sir Laurens van der Post [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This hour-long film consists mainly of an interview with Laurens van der Post, author, friend of Carl Jung, and godfather of Prince William. The interviews, which must have taken place shortly before his death, focus on his imprisonment by the Japanese during WW2 and his quest for the last people living the traditional life of the Bushman (San) in the Kalahari Desert in the 1950s. There are several excerpts from the film he made for the BBC on that quest, a film that is otherwise unobtainable; anyone who has read Lost World of the Kalahari will find these fascinating. Disappointingly, there is very little about other periods in his life, but what we do get is a very worthwhile experience of this truly exceptional human being.

This review is from: Hasten Slowly: The Journey of Sir Laurens van der Post [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I am very inspired by the leadership that Laurens van der Post provided in the prisoner of war camp where he landed when he was captured during the war. This video captures the power of what one person can do to bring sanity and creativity to a desparate, terrifying situation.
