The Human Experience


I normally don't look up to azcentral.com for their op-ed or reviews, but I am with Lengel on the brief review of "The Human Experience" released three years ago, now on netflix streaming. An attempt to capture the plurality of human experiences in a singular term (we are all human), THE presents a generally upbeat, optimistic meaning-searching documentary. I'd say it's a good film for the chronically depressed but not a sophisticated intellectual examination.

The best thing from watching THE is–get this–Ben Hurlbut's father Dr. William Hurlbut from Stanford Medical Center appeared recurrently in the film. Like father, like son.
