Have faith in Herzog - it's every bit as bizarre, quirky and engaging as any of his films and is beautifully shot and crafted. If anything it's a little too long but that's not a major problem. The last time I saw it was in a packed Friday night showing at Cineworld in Glasgow - who'd have thought Herzog would be selling out mainstream cinemas in the UK in 2010? |
I'll certainly get around to watching it at some point. I think I just got a bit fed up with all the sniping between Herzog and Ferrara. Ferrara's comments about remakes were pretty offensive (so what was Body Snatchers then?), and Herzog claiming he didn't know who he was seemed a bit disingenuous.
