This is so fucked up.
Y'know, years ago before my time, there was a legendary thread where some posters got stuck in a parallel realm of ESB and couldn't get out. This resembles that slightly.

Is there not any way you can change it back to the old theme you use? That shitty theme is called "Lightweight" down the bottom of the page but when I changed themes there was no way to change back.

You stuck in it NWS?

EDIT: After having a read through the thread I realized that only phone users were stuck with that layout. Sorry man, I don't know shit.

Yeah, sucks on my iphone now.

Tin_Ribs re-watching Aguirre and already I'm feeling like I'm there and am not seeing a nonce, I'm seeing a character.

Herzog's direction is what makes it so real. Documentary style almost, and the actors actually go on that journey. It's mental. One of my grippest gripes with the 'historical epic' (not that this fits that category for obvious reasons) is when you've got different nationalities all speaking English (or whatever) yet with this it grabs me so much I don't even notice all the Spaniards speaking German after a while

Herzog only has himself to blame for taking someone he knew was so volatile through this and Fitzcarraldo

You seen Woyzeck?

The last great hallucinator, one film critic called him. The stories, the impossible production and the characters all seem to meld together as an extension of him onscreen. Aguirre had me spellbound from the opening moment when the mist breaks and you see the army of conquistadors descending the mountain. The late, great Florian Fricke deserves an immense amount of credit too for that score with the choir organ. I can sit and listen to it for hours on loop.

Woyzeck is excellent too, though not for everyone. Weird feel to it, sort of detached but claustrophobic at the same time. I wonder what Eva Mattes makes of the revelations about Kinski? She liked him a lot iirc.

You seen many of the Herzog documentaries Flea?

Only 'My Best Fiend' although I wanna' see the one about the girl that survived a plane crash.

I've seen the Kinski films, Bad Lieutenant Port Of Call New Orleans, and Rescue Dawn. Think that's all I've seen of Herzog's movies.

Juliane Koepcke in Wings of Hope? I've not seen that one for years. I'd definitely recommend most of his stuff from the last 10 to 12 years: Grizzly Man, Encounters, Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Into the Abyss etc. Burden of Dreams is brilliant too, though he didn't direct it.

I'd say watch The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser too. As good as any of the stuff he did with Kinski.

Oh, I've seen 'Grizzly Man' as well.

Cheers for the recommendations mush.
