...that most viewers are a little put off by the existential, subjective POV and pacing. They want more action, without noticing that quite a lot is going on. They want 3 acts and a resolution in the end.You are right on, in Kandahar, subtext is everything and the ending is open-ended. OTOH, neither Hollywood nor Spielberg would ever make this movie anyway...which is why I was so happy it WAS produced.
BTW, you didn't really mean "cloying" (not a compliment) did you? Perhaps just "clausterphobic" or "smothering"? As a woman, you can imagine how uncomfortable seeing women smothered in bourkas made me feel. It is a very effective literally and metaphorically for the Taliban's repression.
