Werner Herzog on Fresh Air

Herzog is a weird guy. Some of his movies are terrible; others are simply awesome. I don't think I've seen anything of his that I would classify as "so-so".

Will have to check out the cave flick. :)
 
I re-watched Fitzcarraldo not too long ago. I generally like his stuff.

I missed that interview (hopefully not with Terri Gross who I can't stand), but I'm a daily NPR listener.
 
I'll probably put a double-feature together with AGUIRRE: THE WRATH OF GOD and the doc MY BEST FRIEND, about his working relationship with Klaus Kinski.

We tried to get through "My Son, My Son, What have ye done" but turned it off after about 30 minutes because the music was unrelentingly grating and it just felt like a half-baked, clunky, uneven mess. Weird.
