Finding Harmony review – a fawning King Charles documentary
A review in Theguardian says Amazon's documentary Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision presents an uncritical profile of King Charles and is, the reviewer argues, intensely frustrating to watch. The piece describes a fawning tone that frames the core message as: the world is in trouble because people did not listen to the king.
The review notes Kate Winslet's narration and the film's claim that Charles foresaw environmental collapse as long ago as the 60s, championed organic food and was dismissed as crazy before those views became mainstream. It also highlights the film's focus on projects such as the restoration of Dumfries House, prisoner beekeeping and work in Kabul, and says the documentary links disparate threads with stock footage and a series of sweeping claims — from pine particles in forests to the housing crisis to repeating patterns in the universe — including a sequence the reviewer likens to an acid trip.
