My favorite Herzog film

I'm still looking for the "cult" of Herzog web site. I'm quite certain that he, like David Lynch, must have a core groups of devotees for whom they can do no wrong.

I saw this film during a deep depression when I borrowed it from the San Francisco Public Library. My life was in complete disarray and I contemplated suicide several times a day for well over a year. I've always thought, since, that my deep, abiding identification with this film was connected to my mood at the time and my sense of hopelessness and self-doubt.

Werner, who I consider to be one of the greatest comics ever, will forever be known as a director who defies definition, a man who has made several films can be viewed with equal merit as both satire and serious examination at the same time.

He's only getting better with age. I wish him a long life and long career. His wife is a hottie too.
