So, you’ve got this intriguing documentary from 2010 called 'The Name is not the Thing named.' It really dances around some heavy themes, exploring experiences that most of us can relate to, yet struggle to put into words. The atmosphere is quite ethereal, almost dreamlike, and you find yourself drifting through these various locations that seem to be both unique and representative of something larger. The pacing is rather meditative – it encourages you to sit back and reflect. And it’s interesting how the title nods to Crowley’s translation of the 'Tao Te Ching.' It’s like the film’s trying to show how language often falls short. Not your typical documentary, but there’s something about it that sticks with you.
