Podcasts about Fitzcarraldo

We conclude our month long series on films with serious behind the scenes issues with 1982's Fitzcarraldo, 1956's The Conqueror, and 1981's Roar.Live Show Ticketspatreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Durch Filme wie “Fitzcarraldo” oder “Aguirre” wurde der unbequeme „Soldat des Kinos“ zur Legende des europäischen Arthouse-Kinos. 2026 erlebt Werner Herzog einen weiteren Karriere-Höhepunkt: Im Alter von 83 Jahren wird er zum unwahrscheinlichsten Influencer aller Zeiten. Werner Herzog ist vielleicht der derzeit berühmteste Kultur-Export Deutschlands. Nur in seinem Heimatland kennt ihn kaum jemand. Autor Max Osenstätter sucht nach Antworten unter anderem im Dschungel von Peru und findet heraus, dass Herzog und er eine Gemeinsamkeit haben: Beide haben ein außergewöhnliches Verhältnis zur Wahrheit. Von Klaus Uhrig, Johannes Munzinger, Judith Goetsch und Max Osenstätter SWR/BR 2026

Jakob, Anne og Martine er enda ikke helt kloke på mannen, myten og legenden: Werner Herzog. I et forsøk på å komme nærmere den eksentriske tyske regissøren har de sett fiksjonsfilmene "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" (1972) og "Fitzcarraldo" (1982) med Klaus Kinski i hovedrollen, samt dokumentaren "My Best Fiend" (1999) om forholdet mellom Herzog og Kinski. Hvem var denne riv røskende gale mannen Klaus Kinski? Hvordan i alle dager ble disse filmene til? Kan mennesket virkelig beefe med naturen? Hadde Kinski overlevd kanselleringskulturen? Og er det fiksjonsfilmene eller dokumentarene til Herzog som er best? Hiv på deg rustningen eller lindressen, og følg oss på eventyret ned elven mens vi prøver å bli litt klokere i fellesskap. 

Neste episódio, exploramos três filmes do realizador alemão Werner Herzog: “Aguirre, a cólera de Deus” (1972), “Fitzcarraldo” (1982) e “Cobra Verde” (1987). Estes três filmes de Werner Herzog formam uma espécie de trilogia informal sobre a obsessão humana, a ambição desmedida e o confronto entre o indivíduo e forças que o transcendem, sempre com a selva como paisagem de fundo e com Klaus Kinski no papel principal.

Rambo Van Halen is a pseudonym. He's a Hollywood producer — the real kind, the below-the-line kind, the guy making sure the steel gets to the factory — who worked in the industry for decades, walked away in 2019, and wrote a book about it.The book is called Hollywood Samizdat: Notes from Below the Line. It's published by Passage Press. Lou read it. He dog-eared it. They talked for an hour. Topics include: what a producer actually does (mostly administration, definitely not what people think); what happens to actors when nobody says no to them for 20 years; the feminization of Hollywood and why straight guys stopped being able to do their jobs; military veterans vs. film school graduates on set (no contest); Werner Herzog, Klaus Kinski, and the Amazon river; the unwritten casting rule about who can and can't be the butt of the joke; MeToo — the careers it should have ended, the ones it shouldn't have, and the Joe Gatt story that will make your jaw drop; and why Rambo Van Halen is not his real name and probably never will be.

Spomini velikega nemškega režiserja se berejo kot kak pustolovski roman, obenem pa postavljajo spomenik presežni lepoti in ekstatični resnici, ki se lahko razkrijeta samo na filmskem platnuVeliko ljudi se v poznih letih sicer loti pisanja svojih spominov, a se ob branju potem dovolj pogosto pokaže, da njihova življenja nemara le niso bila tako zanimiva, razgibana, napeta ali protislovna, da bi jih bilo po vsej sili treba popisati v knjigi. No, ta pomislek oziroma zadržek, ki se na načelni ravni lahko drži avtobiografskega pisanja, pa ne velja za Wernerja Herzoga, enega največjih živečih umetnikov na svetu, ki je svoje življenje leta 2022 popisal v knjigi Vsak zase in Bog proti vsem, knjigi, ki je pod založniškim okriljem Beletrine zdaj izšla tudi v slovenskem prevodu. Ob branju spominov danes 83-letnega nemškega režiserja, ki se je podpisal pod take filmske mojstrovine, kot so Aguirre, srd božji pa Fitzcarraldo ter Jama pozabljenih sanj, se namreč ni mogoče znebiti vtisa, da je véliki cineast vseskozi živel skrajno intenzivno, da, drugače rečeno, v svojem življenju ni vrgel stran niti enega samega dneva, niti ene same ure. Ko se je torej lotil pisanja spominov, Herzogu nikakor ni manjkalo snovi. A kako natanko je vse prigode, nezgode, zmagoslavja in poraze, ki jih je zabeležil na svoji razgibani življenjski poti, razgrnil pred očmi radovednih bralk in bralcev? – Odgovor smo iskali v tokratnem Sobotnem branju, ko smo pred mikrofonom gostili Anjo Naglič, ki je Herzogove spomine prevedla v slovenski jezik.

We always knew he would be back, and this time he is - back! Yes, he may have had his hands brutally mangled twenty years ago, but after a long convalescence, some quality time with the woman he loves and a period as a novitiate in a local monastery, it's time for Django to dig up his machine gun and get back to what he does best. The only official Django sequel, Django Strikes Again sees Franco Nero head down river in a film that is more Rambo meets Fitzcarraldo than it is a spaghetti western, and Rod and Adrian are here for it. This season is dedicated to that great quiet man of British cinema, Donald Pleasence, who spent a great deal of time in the 1980s in Italy. We would love to hear from you about your favourite Donald Pleasence films from this period, or if you have ever made friends with a Scottish Lepidopterist in a top hat.

Let's dust off the archives and celebrate some of the guests we've had on the Rippling Pages. This is a re-release of a previous episode with Polly Barton. Over the years, we've been proud to feature emergent writers on the Rippling Pages and speak to them in the early stages of their careers. One of those writers is Polly Barton, who's just released her debut novel, WHAT AM I, A DEER? with Fitzcarraldo Editions. I spoke to Polly five years ago about her Fitzcarraldo Essay Prize winning, FIFTY SOUNDS.  Polly is a writer and translator from Japanese. Translations include Butter by Asako Yuzuki, Hunchback by Saul Ichikawa, and Where the Where the Wild Ladies Are by Akko Matsuda. Her essay, Porn: An Oral History was also published by Fitzcarraldo Editons.  In our conversation, we picked out knotty debates about language, her time in Japan, and what it means to love and love in language Enjoy!

Send us Fan MailDreams and LiesThis month Sam talks to Makenna Goodman about her latest novel Helen of Nowhere. Published by Fitzcarraldo and described by Jo Hamya as ‘the perfect fairytale for our times', it is the story of Man - an academic dogged by allusions of disgrace and a publicly failed marriage. He seeks to start again and live a ‘good life' far from the city and is drawn into the wilds to view a house which seems to offer him escape.Set over five acts, Man is first question by Realtor, the estate agent seeking to sell him his dream home and then the eponymous Helen, the house's former resident, whose ghost dextrously possesses the narrative as all pretence of reality falls away. Meanwhile, Lara meets with Ben Lerner to hear all about the quite superb Transcription. The writer, father of one and narrator of Ben's new novel has travelled to Providence where he went to college, and where he is to conduct what will be the final published interview with Thomas, his ninety year old mentor and father of his friend, Max. But after his narrator drops his smartphone in the hotel sink, he arrives at Thomas's house with no recording device, a fact he is mysteriously unable to confess. What unfolds from this dreamlike, nightmarish, circumstance is both a brilliant meditation on those technologies that enrich and impoverish our connections to each other, that store and obliterate the memories that make us who we are, and a moving exploration of the experience of being a son, of becoming a man and of trying to be a ‘good' father. Our own tape disintegration on this episode was entirely unintended but beautifully serendipitous.

Send a textIn this episode, I chat with Nikky Dunne from Heywood Hill in Mayfair, London.Step behind the door of a London landmark and discover why a great independent bookshop still beats like a human heart. I chat with Nikky Dunne, bookseller-in-chief at Heywood Hill in Mayfair, to unpack ninety years of tailored bookselling, a wartime chapter powered by Nancy Mitford's wit, and a present-day practice built on listening first and recommending second. From brown-paper parcels to rare firsts, Nikky shows how curation, not scale, creates lasting value for readers who crave depth, surprise, and beauty.Across two floors of a Georgian townhouse, Heywood Hill blends new, old, and antiquarian books into a living catalogue where literature, history, architecture, biography, travel, and children's titles coexist. Nikky explains how the shop sustains its mission with three pillars: research-led library building for homes and offices worldwide, a bespoke subscription service that interviews readers to match their tastes, and a rare book program that partners with passionate collectors. It's a portrait of bookselling as craftsmanship; intimate, precise, and often delightfully demanding.We also celebrate the publishers who keep literature adventurous. Independent presses like Fitzcarraldo and Pushkin bring bold voices and translations to younger readers hungry for challenging ideas, proving that serious books have a vibrant audience. The theme is consistent: human rhythms, not algorithms. When a bookseller listens well, a reader's world widens.If you believe bookstores are more than retail, places of serendipity, memory, and conversation, this story will feel like home.

Sasha Debevec-McKenney's debut collection Joy Is My Middle Name (Fitzcarraldo) packs a lot in – humour, heartbreak, politics, sex, race, womanhood, addiction, sobriety, consumerism, pop culture and much else besides. ‘Where else can you read about e-girls twerking to LBJ in hell?' asks Maggie Millner, author of Couplets. ‘Who else can pack microplastics, adultery, and overalls into the same poem, and make you (literally) cry along the way? No one, that's who. Sasha Debevec-McKenney is the real freaking deal.' She read from her work and spoke about it with Jack Underwood, author of A Year in the New Life and Not Even This.

This week,  an encore of our 2023 conversation with legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog. He's made over 70 movies – most of them documentaries like Fitzcarraldo, Aguirre, the Wrath of God, and Grizzly Man. Herzog's style is so distinctive that his films are recognizable practically from the moment they start. His techniques can be controversial too, when it comes to his unusual casting, and his own presence in the stories he's telling. On October 21, 2023, Herzog came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to Caterina Fake about filmmaking and writing, including his new memoir, Every Man for Himself and God Against All.

Giuseppe Culicchia"Radici"Il festival dell'identità(coltivata, negata, ritrovata"Circolo dei Lettoriwww.circololettori.itA Torino apre Radici: voci e pensieri per chiederci chi siamo e interrogarci sul nostro rapporto con il mondoL'omaggio a Claudia Cardinale poi tante voci tra letteratura, arti e pensieri: David Grossman, Fernando Aramburu, Judith Koelemeijer, Milo Manara, Francesco Piccolo, Emanuele Trevi, Nadia Terranova, Vivian Lamarque, Mauro Covacich, Luciano Lanna, Silvia Ballestra, Caterina d'Amico, Valeria Parrella, Lucio Caracciolo, Massimo Polidoro, Pietrangelo Buttafuoco, Massimo Zamboni, Alessandro Aresu, Annalisa Terranova… Radici, il festival dell'identità (coltivata, negata, ritrovata) apre a Torino e torna a interrogarsi sul tema dell'identità e sul nostro rapporto con noi stessi e con l'Altro da noi. Alla luce di ciò che accade intorno a noi, in un mondo che sembra accelerare verso un cambiamento profondo e radicale di ciò che conoscevamo – e spesso davamo per scontato – un cambiamento che investe ogni ambito, dalla geopolitica alla sessualità, dalla religione al linguaggio, Radici inaugura la 3. edizione.  Il festival è un progetto della Fondazione Circolo dei lettori a cura di Giuseppe Culicchia con il contributo della Regione Piemonte-Assessorato Regionale all'Emigrazione; Radici è in programma da questo giovedì fino a domenica, 13-16 novembre, tra il Circolo dei lettori e delle lettrici e il Cinema Romano. Dopo il successo delle precedenti edizioni, il programma propone una nuova serie di incontri, lezioni e spettacoli che affrontano il tema dell'identità — individuale e collettiva — e della memoria, in un contesto sociale sempre più complesso. Attraverso grandi voci e opere, Radici indaga come i cambiamenti culturali abbiano trasformato la nostra percezione del sé, invitando a riflettere sulla consapevolezza della propria individualità e del mondo.  Il programma, da giovedì 13 a domenica 16 novembre Radici prende il via al Circolo  dei lettori e delle lettrici giovedì 13 novembre con l'incontro I Musei regionali dell'Emigrazione piemontese: Frossasco e Santa Maria Maggiore (h 16), con Piemontesi nel Mondo, Ugo Bertello, Davide Rosso, Claudio Cottini, Rosanna Napoli, Chiara Monferrini, Joaquin Coniglio e Alfons J. Ravelli. Un momento di dialogo tra i presidenti e i comitati di gestione dei musei, le amministrazioni locali e le associazioni di emigrati, per raccontare la memoria viva dell'emigrazione piemontese e le sue radici culturali.Segue la lectio di Paola Mastrocola (h 18), La nostalgia degli dei e il mito, un percorso tra Nietzsche, la fine del sacro e la trasformazione del mito nel nostro tempo. A seguire si tiene Alle radici dell'opera d'arte, con Alfonso Frugis, Michela Cardinali e Federica Pozzi, dedicato ai vent'anni del centro di restauro della Venaria Reale (h 18.30).

Werner Herzog ist einer der einflussreichsten Filmemacher unserer Zeit – bekannt für seinen kompromisslosen Stil, seine ikonischen Dokumentationen und Spielfilme und für eine künstlerische Vision, die ihn immer wieder an die äußersten Ränder der Welt geführt hat. In dieser Folge des Weltwach Podcasts spricht der Regisseur von Klassikern wie „Fitzcarraldo“, „Aguirre – der Zorn Gottes“ und „Grizzly Man“ über das Abenteuer des Filmemachens, die Kraft von Visionen – und über ein Leben, das selbst zum Stoff für große Erzählungen taugt.Herzog berichtet von Dreharbeiten am Limit: über Stürme in Patagonien, Beinahe-Katastrophen im Dschungel und über eine Szene, die Filmgeschichte schrieb – als er ein echtes Dampfschiff über einen Berg im Amazonas ziehen ließ. Es geht um seine Prinzipien beim Arbeiten, seine Skepsis gegenüber Spezialeffekten, seine Liebe zur Prosa – und um die Frage, was bleibt, wenn alles andere vergeht.Außerdem erzählt er von seiner Zusammenarbeit mit Bergsteigern wie Stefan Glowacz – und von einer denkwürdigen Begegnung mit dem japanischen Soldaten Hiroo Onoda, der fast 30 Jahre nach Kriegsende in einem philippinischen Dschungel ausharrte, im festen Glauben, der Zweite Weltkrieg sei noch nicht vorbei.

Big yet somewhat vague news on Misfits. Watch out for the nasal sprays! Instead of doing something fulfilling on Halloween like "taking my children trick or treating," or perusing LA Halloween whores, I went home and watched GI Joe: The Movie (from 1987) Subway got rid of their flatbread for breakfast sandwiches, because of course they did.  I went to see a myriad of old movies around town in the fortnight since we last spoke: Bullitt, Fitzcarraldo, and Annie Hall (RIP Diane Keaton)I did stand up for the first time in 3 months, and I went to see Michael Knowles speak at the Nixon Presidential Library, but I forgot most of what he said because I was having a full blown panic attack for most of it. (What fun it is to be me)

I'm talking with the essayist Joanna Pocock, and this is some bonus content from our original interview. America is a place that has compelled countless writers to travel its vast and varied landscapes.  Perhaps you've done it yourself. But what happens when you feel compelled to do it all again? That's the question at the heart of Joanna Pocock's essay, Greyhound (Fitzcarraldo Editions). Named after the iconic bus company whose intercity network carries passengers from Detroit to Los Angeles — and which Joanna relies on for her own journey — Greyhound revisits familiar motels, crossings, and bus stations she first encountered years before. Joanna's writing has appeared in the LA Times, Guardian US and the Nation among others. GREYHOUND is her second book, and her first, SURRENDER, won the Fitzcarraldo essay prize.

pWotD Episode 3067: Claudia Cardinale Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 225,773 views on Wednesday, 24 September 2025 our article of the day is Claudia Cardinale.Claude Joséphine Rose "Claudia" Cardinale (Italian: [ˈklaudja kardiˈnaːle]; 15 April 1938 – 23 September 2025) was an Italian actress.Born and raised in La Goulette, a neighbourhood of Tunis, Cardinale won the "Most Beautiful Italian Girl in Tunisia" competition in 1957, the prize being a trip to Italy, which quickly led to film contracts, due above all to the involvement of producer Franco Cristaldi, who acted as her mentor for a number of years and later married her. After making her debut in a minor role with Egyptian star Omar Sharif in Goha (1958), Cardinale became one of the best-known actresses in Italy, with roles in films such as Rocco and His Brothers (1960), Girl with a Suitcase (1961), Cartouche (1962), The Leopard (1963) and Federico Fellini's 8½ (1963).From 1963, Cardinale appeared in The Pink Panther opposite David Niven. She went on to appear in the Hollywood films Blindfold (1966), Lost Command (1966), The Professionals (1966), Don't Make Waves (1967) with Tony Curtis, The Hell with Heroes (1968), The Red Tent (1969), A Fine Pair (1968), The Salamander (1981), and the Sergio Leone Western Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), a joint U. S.–Italian production, in which she was praised for her role as a former prostitute opposite Jason Robards, Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda.Jaded with Hollywood and not wanting to become a cliché, Cardinale returned to Italian and French cinema and garnered the David di Donatello for Best Actress award for her roles in The Day of the Owl (1968) and as a prostitute alongside Alberto Sordi in A Girl in Australia (1971). In 1974, Cardinale met director Pasquale Squitieri, who would become her partner and she frequently featured in his films, including Blood Brothers (1974), Father of the Godfathers (1978) and Claretta (1984), the last of which won her the Nastro d'Argento Award for Best Actress. In 1982, she starred in Werner Herzog's Fitzcarraldo as the love interest of Klaus Kinski, who raises the funds to buy a steamship in Peru. In 2010, Cardinale received the Best Actress Award at the 47th Antalya "Golden Orange" International Film Festival for her performance as an elderly Italian woman who takes in a young Turkish exchange student in Signora Enrica.Outspoken on women's rights causes over the years, Cardinale was a UNESCO goodwill ambassador for the Defence of Women's Rights beginning in March 2000. In February 2011, the Los Angeles Times Magazine named Cardinale among the 50 most beautiful women in film history.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:27 UTC on Thursday, 25 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Claudia Cardinale on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Jasmine.

Claudia Cardinale kam nur widerwillig zum Film. Dann spielte sie in Filmklassikern mit wie "Der Leopard", "Achteinhalb", "Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod" und "Fitzcarraldo". Nun ist die Schauspielerin mit 87 Jahren gestorben. Von Christian Berndt

Fitzcarraldo, Woyzeck, Nosferatu - Werner Herzog ist neben Wim Wenders der international bekannteste deutsche Regisseur. Den deutschen Film hat er entscheidend geprägt, aber bekannt war er hierzulande lange nur für seine skandalträchtige Zusammenarbeit mit Klaus Kinski. Bei den Filmfestspielen in Venedig bekommt Herzog nun den Ehrenlöwen für sein Lebenswerk. Zur Ruhe setzen will sich der 83-jährige aber noch lange nicht. Welche Energie treibt ihn an? Was zeichnet sein Filmschaffen, das über 70 Spiel- und Dokumentarfilme umfasst, aus? Und was macht diesen „alten weißen Mann“, der von einigen als Selbstdarsteller geschmäht wird, gerade für jüngere Leute zu einer Kultfigur? Karsten Umlauf diskutiert mit Dr. Kristina Jaspers – Kuratorin, Deutsche Kinemathek Berlin; Rüdiger Suchsland – Filmkritiker; Prof. Dr. Marcus Stiglegger – Filmwissenschaftler

In his debut collection Strange Beach – the very first title in Fitzcarraldo's new poetry series – poet and choreographer Oluwaseun Olayiwola finds the body to be a porous landscape across which existential dilemmas of gender, sexuality and race are enacted and explored. Poet and novelist Andrew McMillan writes of Olayiwola's work ‘the tideline of the poetic phrase is constantly shifting, is forever rebuilt and remade on the shifting sands of language, every grain of a word held up to the light to consider its myriad refractions.' Olayiwola read from Strange Beach, and was joined in conversation about his work by the poet and critic Camille Ralphs. Find more events at the London Review Bookshop: https://lrb.me/eventspod

She be Fitzing on my Car 'til I Raldo! It's Lukas' birthday choice, and every year he gives us a tall task of some long, foreign, and highly artistic film. The task was nearly as big as pulling a steamboat up a mountain which is what we are talking about this week with the film "Fitzcarraldo". How many injuries/illnesses/deaths happened while filming this movie? What children's story would be a perfect marriage of things for Brandon's daughter? And what cereal and milk does Fitzcarraldo eat for breakfast? Tune in this week to find out all this and more, but only on "The Good, The Bad, & The Movies"!P.S.

This week on Peanuts and Popcorn, the All-Star break has come and gone, while the White Sox celebrated the 20th anniversary of their World Series win over the Houston Astros, while mourning the passing of Bobby Jenks. In Popcorn, we have a pair of great films to review this week. We start with Tommy's choice, a modern film noir effort, After Dark, My Sweet (1990). We then move to Leo's selection, the Werner Herzog epic, Fitzcarraldo (1982).Next Show's Films:Leo's Pick: Pascali's Island (1988)Tom's Pick:  Spirited Away (2001)

It's hard to believe that Fitzcarraldo Editions has only existed for ten years; during that short time, they have published a remarkable selection of books (gathering four Nobel Prizes between them), and their iconic blue and white covers have become a mainstay of the bookshop. To celebrate their first decade, Fitzcarraldo are publishing some of their best-loved titles in hardback, limited edition form. Brian Dillon and Kate Briggs will be at the shop to discuss their books in this series: Dillon's Essayism (a gathering together of his loose trilogy on the intimate and abstract pleasures of reading and looking), and Briggs' This Little Art, a fresh, fierce and timely meditation on literary translation. The conversation will be chaired by Helen Charman, whose political history of motherhood, Mother State, came out earlier this year from Penguin.

We mark Bastille Day with a dive into President Macron's cultural policy for France. And we revisit the dark heart of filmmaking with two people who were there during the making of Apocalypse Now and Fitzcarraldo. Documentaries made about both films have been re-released - Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmakers Apocalypse, about Apocalypse Now is in cinemas, and Burden of Dreams about Fitzcarraldo is streaming. Kasim Ali on his new novel about young British Pakistani men and gang culture. And Errolyn Wallen on composing for the First Night of the Proms.Presenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Harry Graham

Claire and Gavia dig into the chaotic production process and artistic accomplishments of Werner Herzog's acclaimed 1982 historical drama Fitzcarraldo, accompanied by its fascinating making-of documentary Burden of Dreams. Set in turn-of-the-century Peru, Fitzcarraldo explores an ill-advised river voyage by an Irish businessman (Klaus Kinski), who seeks to build an opera house in the Amazon basin. Behind the scenes, life imitated art as Herzog's film shoot dragged on for years, endangering the lives of cast and crew, and raising questions about the ethics of asking others to suffer for your art.

Have we got over a cultural reluctance to read literature in translation?Alice and Charlotte have both been reading Perfection by Vincenzo Latronico, and it's got us thinking about the unique experience of reading literature from another culture. In today's episode, we speak to the novelist and translator Lauren Elkin about what it's like to render a book in a different language, the scourge of bad translations, and whether translators are finally beginning to get more respect and recognition.We also discuss the huge impact of Fitzcarraldo's publishing on contemporary literature, the importance of good design in publishing, hip literary parties, and why some books become widely read in some languages but never find their audience in others.In Haste is presented by Alice Vincent and Charlotte Runcie, and is produced by Holly Fisher for Hasty Productions, with original music by Maria Chiara Argiró and graphic design by Alicia Fernandes.

Send us a textNosferatu 1922's reputation grew down the years, especially among film lovers. One of these was German master director Werner Herzog. As the 70s ended, Herzog determined that he wanted to remake the film --- an homage to what he felt was the greatest film ever to come from Germany. In Season 1 of the pod, we've looked at the scope of Herzog's work, and up close at one of his most moving films, Fitzcarraldo. Herzog is well-known for his capture of humans surviving under trying conditions, accomplishing tasks that are seemingly impossible, or unlikely. Further, he himself filmed in locations that would challenge even the best-equipped film companies --- in mountains, volcanoes, deserts, along the Amazon, amid the Siberian taiga, across the frozen Midwest. His work on Fitzcarraldo had led his backers to dub him “The Conquistador of the Useless,” as he struggled for years to film a steamship pulled by humans over a mountain. But he's characterized himself as someone who captures the dreams of others, even dreams that turn out to be impossible to realize.Website and blog: www.thosewonderfulpeople.comIG: @thosewonderfulpeopleTwitter: @FilmsInTheDark

The filmmaker doesn't want to be known only for his movies. He tells Steve why he considers himself a writer first, how it feels to be recognized for his role in The Mandalorian, and why he once worked as a rodeo clown. SOURCE:Werner Herzog, filmmaker, author, and actor. RESOURCES:Every Man for Himself and God Against All, by Werner Herzog (2023).The Mandalorian, TV show (2019-2023).The Twilight World, by Werner Herzog (2021).Family Romance, LLC, film by Werner Herzog (2019).Fitzcarraldo, film by Werner Herzog (1982).Of Walking in Ice, by Werner Herzog (1978).Aguirre, the Wrath of God, film by Werner Herzog (1972).Rogue Film School. EXTRAS:"David Simon Is On Strike.

The renowned German filmmaker Werner Herzog has become known for many things: his notoriously ambitious film productions like “Fitzcarraldo” and “Aguirre, The Wrath of God”; his expansive documentaries; and his mellifluous voice, which he has used to great effect lately as an actor in productions like “Jack Reacher'' and “The Mandalorian.” But, according to Herzog himself, his fabulist work as his own biographer deserves just as much praise. “That's my approach, that is beyond outside of facts,” Herzog tells David Remnick. “And it requires stylizations, it requires somehow shaping, creating something like poetry, a sense of poetry, that gives us an approach into truth.” In a wide-ranging conversation, the eighty-one-year-old Herzog looks back on his career, his newfound success embracing the “self irony” of his persona (“I had to spread terror . . . I knew I would be good at it,” he deadpans about his “Reacher” role), and why he never watched a “Star Wars” film until recently. “I am somebody who reads, there is not a day where I do not read,” the prolific Herzog says. “I love what I do. I think I made—in the last two years—two books, three films, and I'm working on a new feature film, and I'm publishing a new book next year.”
