Aguirre is still my number one film, but maybe that's because it is Klaus Kinski + Herzog, but as for now... what happened?
Grizzly Man
It's an entertaining documentary, he shows sensitivity when he could have played the tape of the bear eating poor deluded Timothy, I confess I enjoyed it...but that's when it all changed - lots and lots of people enjoyed it, he becomes a household name, and transforms into a parody of himself palatable to mass media, the man who would eat his own shoe or embark on some arduous trek across some mountains is gone, replaced by a caricature of himself... my loss of faith occurred when visiting my mother, who like a massive number of other woman of a certain age loves the novels of Lee Childe, featuring the OAP heartthrob "Jack Reacher", a one man A-team who, only equipped with a toothbrush, rids the small town of all evil..so when she put on the Jack Reacher film ( starring Tom Cruise as the 6 foot seven hero - "height is only a metaphor" according to the author of the bestselling series after he accepted the Hollywood dollars ) and the evil mastermind villain was revealed to be... Werner Herzog.. mixed emotions...
