Has anyone seen this in the West or know where to order it? It looks good and was nominated for an Oscar last year. Some reviews:

If you're into cartoon versions of the Buddha's life, I would heartily recommend (18 stars out of 10) the manga series BUDDHA by Osamu Tezuka. I really, really like it. It's 8 books altogether, but the last two haven't been released yet. It was originally published in Japan in the 1970s but only recently translated into English. Check it out! You can get it on Amazon. But be forewarned that this is manga, so it might upset traditionalists a bit!
