    Multi-faceted German filmmaker, Werner Herzog is back in Studio Q with "Into the Abyss" - an unflinching look at life on death row which steers clear of guilt or innocence.

      Some documentary films do change the world, at least gifting the viewer with enthusiasm, something to spark their creativity, and provide some nutritious entertainment. Example: Harris Blank’s Automorphosis documentary. It’s about art car, but it goes far beyond just art and cars.
      By the way, Harrod’s father Les Blank made the documentary “The Burden of Dreams”, about the making of Herzog’s “Fitzcarraldo”.
      Nice interview with Werner Herzog last night 10-6-2020 on the “Q” radio show. The host Tom Power , like Jian Gomeshi, truly understand the art of the interview.

    I won't comment on Herzog, as I love his work dearly and he is getting his earned credit for it. I want to express my joy of seeing, finaly - since a long time - that there is a journalist there (younger than 50 year old) that knows how to do his work. Very rare nowadays. Good work!

      I have serious doubts that you consumed enough journalism to make such a generalization about the vast majority of journalists under 50 yrs. not researching interview subjects. Praise looks more credible without the presence of ridiculously wide inferences.

    Herzog is wonderful as always - and now I find myself desperate to see Into the Abyss. But the hubris of this interviewer is beyond belief - chummily calling him "Werner", comparing what he does as an interviewer to what Herzog does as a filmmaker, giving his (ultimately pretty banal) questions a needlessly aggressive slant, as though he were trying to pin down a slippery, recalcitrant subject. I can't imagine what it's like to have such chutzpah.

  • @caderoger
    @caderoger Před 3 lety

    movies don't change the world, because they don't represent reality. a documentary captures the vision of its own filmmaker, it doesn't represent the truth, it will always represent a biased view on any subject. some people just agree with the view represented in the film, and sometimes coincidences occur in real life, so there's the ilusion that a movie sort of predicted or caused a change. some movies represent heaven to some people. the same movie might represent hell to others. will they feed our imaginations and create trends? yes, but real change is random. there were films about pandemics before, but it always seemed too farfetched, and when it came, we were still not prepared. movies might represent a change that we would like to see fullfiled in reality, the other option seems to be too romantic to me.
