Go watch 17:55 he said the whole reason he did his own version is because he wanted to humanize the vampire character of Dracula - not just have him be an evil soul less monster like he was in the original but he wanted to make a vampire character of Dracula more human like on the inside with actual depth and emotion and desire. 😅 So that part shows he actually does analyze the characters 😝 so when it gets to 32:00 he just means that he doesn't believe in OVER analyzing movies because he's a film maker not a film critic. 😖
The interviewer could have been better.... but Werner is outstanding... he is so articulate and humorous, an incredibly intelligent man with amazing charisma... the interviewer misses most of these points.
I watch Herzog interviews on TH-cam because of his honesty, wry humor and for being so articulate. It’s refreshing to hear a famous person in the arts tell an interviewer, without missing a beat, that she (in this case) is wrong in her presumptions about his work. About 22 minutes in she kills all momentum by running her mouth for about five minutes straight. Give me a break. On top of that she’s humorless.
I hear you but I also feel she isn't as bad as you say. I think she is okay, Not great but not that bad either. Who cares anyways? The point of the whole thing is to hear Herzog the Great Genuis talk and that's all that I care about. I hardly notice her.
And what is this with reading the questions off of a notepad? Such an insult. Come prepared in your mind, or give him the questions in writing before hand. Really hard to watch such disrespect all around. There was no better person for the interview? COLD.
i watch/listen to mr herzog due to the raw opium deliciousness of his voice. the whole aural package- his actual, sedate, meandering and often animated monotonic sound, his impeccable, occasionally mesmerizing delivery, the epic language of his inspirations-cum-realizations and his awesome ability to thoroughly absorb, experience and then reflect any subject he has a genuine interest in w/ the ability, skill and professional expertise of persons exhibiting their crafts at the utter pinnacle of their inherent and clearly- on some if not many levels- perfected/perfecting forms. this cat- who is and seems effortlessly always at his best- is and shall remain an enormous light in the constellation that is humanity at IT'S best. and he is goddamned hilarious. this chick is an enormous tad bit arrogant, bloviating in such a cheap and canned way as well. to the master about his work no less. an odd onomatopoeia to her- tsk-tsk-tsk. sorry. can one bloviate on a keyboard? i do if so.
@@MrLightspeed37 Wow, I can see it in my mind right now. You are correct, the music is also special. The music in "Little Dieter Needs to Fly" is also special, as is that film. The bombs and napalm dropping are deeply imprinted in my psyche. That movie touched me in a strange way. What a special man he is. (Lol, I'm watching "Tommy Boy" right now, what a contrast!)
Judging by how often Herzog had to correct the host on what his intentions were on a variety of topics, it appears that she is very unprepared or unable to understand who Werner Herzog is. Also, arguing with the guest is so inappropriate. If Herzog has a certain view on things, you do not correct him, you leave it 'as is'.
I think she is over prepared. She should throw her notes away and ask real questions. Her problem is she is over confident, she thinks she is more intelligent than she is, she assumes she understands everything already. She should quit making statements and start asking questions, first she should get some humility and understand she does not understand everything, she should begin to listen.
She was jfc, its fine if an interviewer occasionally disagrees with the interviewee. This discussion was great, get over yourself. Witnessing a minor disagreement isn't the end of the world.
Questioner (at 43:32): The journey that happens in making a film is quite often the point of a project… Werner Herzog: No. No. No. No. No! It’s the most unimportant of all. The only thing that counts is what you see on the screen. You see, ‘exploring your boundaries…’ What a stupidity is that? And you see it among these extreme mountain climbers and the triple triathlon and all this nonsense that you see around you. You see it on television you see them on talk shows. I’m NOT one of those. I’m not one of those. I’m just a quiet soldier of cinema.
15:29 - 17:43 is pure Herzog. “The only thing I teach in my course is how to forge permits and how to pick locks...’This is how you pick a lock to get into your own property only ...watch my face...”
She is reading her questions from her notes. It sounds rehearsed and fake. She should just allow the conversation to lead itself instead of using prepared questions. She doesn't seem to even understand his answers completely. I can't be certain if it is because she truly doesn't understand what Herzog is saying or if she is ignoring his answers and just continuing with the prepared questions in her notes. She is doing the viewers a great disservice. Herzog has a lot to say and this could be so much better without her notes ruining it.
Everyone in a rage over how the interviewer occasionally disagreed with Herzog needs to calm down. It's fine if an interviewer occasionally disagrees with the interviewee. This discussion was great. Get over yourself. Witnessing a minor disagreement isn't the end of the world. Of course Herzog is going to disagree with traditional ideas about film interpretation, you have to expect that. That doesn't mean the interviewee is some kind of evil villain.
This woman is speaking to a master, the least she could do is internalize what she is talking about BEFORE the interview. She is like a high school student conducting her first interview.She is a "Director" of what???
before even reading the comments below, I absolutely knew within the first 2 minutes of this shindig that Werner & the interviewer were not kindred spirits...
Herzog is an amazing talent and film maker, it's always a pleasure to hear him speak his mind and this is as usual a great talk/interview although I must say I was a bit annoyed with the interviewer having to interject feminism and her steering of the conversation in that particular direction as if "female agency" is some novel. revolutionary idea that must be pointed out and elaborated on at any and every opportunity possible, it has gotten pretty old and stale at this point.
It was really amazing how Werner made a vampire film that was based on the original Nosferatu I really how they made the story based on the original story film
....hihihi,really I like all his work as an director, specially his docu.-MEIN GELIEBTER FEIND-Mr. Herzog tells incredible story's about Klaus Kinski and shows footage behind the scene. But I watched much later an interview with Walter Saxer he was the produce manager by FITZGERALDO, he tell that a lot of story's about KK been not true. Hmmmmm... Is an interview in german languages you can find it by you tube.
What a terrible mis-match between Herzog, the interviewer and the audience. She's over-intellectualising Herzog's films, which he clearly resists. He even mocks her, but she presses on. She inserts a mini-lecture in one of her "questions". It sounds preposterous, and Herzog seems to think so too. And what an obnoxious audience, and I'm not only referring to the fool he gets everything wrong. The audience laughs inappropriately at points where Herzog is clearly serious. I know audiences like this, always laughing at things that aren't funny because they don't understand and want to signal that they do (or think they do).
so much hate for the poor woman interviewing. that is how I know you are all kids. when you're 30+ you really do not care about stuff like that. a misunderstanding, mix up, or disagreement, no big deal. but on youtube comments with kids they are all going OMG how appalling!
I watched one Herzog interview recently and got interested to look up for more. This interview sucks not because of Herzog, whom I wanna listen to, but because the interviewer made it unpleasant for me to follow through tbh lol
You have him to thanks for little yoda remaining an animatronic puppet in the show instead of a CGI animation. When Werner saw the puppet he loved it so much he told the director and the show rinner they would be stupid to not use it for the whole show. Sinve they were all big fans of Herzog they took his advice to heart and the rest is history.
Yeah he does character development and all that other stuff. He does it faster and or subconsciously, you can't escape it. It kinda sounds like he's just trying to sound cool/edgy.
We don't know who wrote the cards she's reading off of, and this isn't a talk show. She's not full of herself in any sense in her delivery, but is all about reading the notes, and letting whatever happens next happen. She isn't bothered that the questions aren't working well, as if she has no investment in them, or guilt over her task.
@@TT-mx5ll I like how you responded to my comment as if I was even addressing Herzog's work... I was trolling, idiot... if you want answers to questions like, what "it all means," take a philosophy course and stop making rhetorical Socratic-style arguments on youtube against people who are obviously being just as stupid as you are, but on purpose--ie, me--you simp fuck
"I'm just a quiet soldier of the cinema" - what a great expression!
It's also what he called Bruno S- I like how they shared that 'title.'
Whoever clapped at 32:11 in response to Herzog's feelings on critical theory and character analysis is my spirit animal.
Go watch 17:55 he said the whole reason he did his own version is because he wanted to humanize the vampire character of Dracula - not just have him be an evil soul less monster like he was in the original but he wanted to make a vampire character of Dracula more human like on the inside with actual depth and emotion and desire. 😅 So that part shows he actually does analyze the characters 😝 so when it gets to 32:00 he just means that he doesn't believe in OVER analyzing movies because he's a film maker not a film critic. 😖

I almost worship Herzog... the opening scene in "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" is probably the most beautiful I've ever witnessed.
I only recently.saw that film and I had the same reaction. I also thought the music in that scene really elevated it.

"to give them confidence"
"no, to avoid legal trouble that I'm teaching something in conspiracy to do something illegal"
I paused at fucking 15:28 and read this 💀
Love Herzog and his films. Read Conquest of the Useless. Great work. Thanks
very underrated director. Nosferatu phantom der nacht is fantastic.
No he is not underrated
@@joguess87 Apparently the English language has run out of words, hence the words "underrated" and "narcissist" around every corner.
Underrated by whom? Sounds like a comment made by a person who has only just discovered Herzog and knows very little about him.
Nosferatu the Vampyre is such a beautiful journey all the way through it carved a place in my core the beautiful context and imagination
"I actually rolled one of the police cars out of the way. so police was unfriendly with me." I love him so much

Total joke of an interviewer. She is delusional thinking she is somehow on the same plane as herzog
@@ToxicTurtleIsMad She isn't "thinking she's on the same plane as Herzog" for having a different opinion or idea jfc calm down
31:36 Werner totally goes off on the interviewer for being too academic 😂
This woman is speaking to a master, the least she could do is internalize what she is talking about BEFORE the interview. She is like a high school student conducting her first interview.She is a "Director" of what???
Traffic? Just guessing.
Nosferatu is the most beautiful film Herzog has ever shot
This guy is a bloody genius!
He knows talent when he sees it for sure. Shouting out Chloe Zhao @ 26:20, who would win Best Director merely 3 years later.
before even reading the comments below, I absolutely knew within the first 2 minutes of this shindig that Werner & the interviewer were not kindred spirits...
what a powerhouse Werner is!!
If Werner Herzog was the quartermaster at the Battle of Isandlwhana the battle would have gone differently. This man knows how to get it done.

It was really amazing how Werner made a vampire film that was based on the original Nosferatu I really how they made the story based on the original story film
Amazing, how Herzog shouts out Chloe Zhao before "The Rider" already.
Very funny man. And naturally to hear such a dignified old European man talk this way heightens the humor.
Great Interview!

yes Kinksy was a way more realistic and even more scary vampire because more believable.

A Great Artist and Human who is not fond of narrow-minded Bureaucracy and Stupidity !
Chapter title for Herzog's response to the Wagner question is spelled "Vogner"--Weimar on the Pacific indeed.
Probably auto-generated title based on pronunciation
The guy who thought Tim Treadwell was an underrated genius didn't like Bram Stoker's work. I'm hardly surprised.
hahaha. I'm with him
Says the person with an anime photo of a person wearing cat ears, I'm not surprised.
Wasn't this guy in the mandalorian
Yes. Sometimes he appears as an actor
You have him to thanks for little yoda remaining an animatronic puppet in the show instead of a CGI animation. When Werner saw the puppet he loved it so much he told the director and the show rinner they would be stupid to not use it for the whole show. Sinve they were all big fans of Herzog they took his advice to heart and the rest is history.
It's a great movie, never been relegated from my all-time favorite 5 films for 40 years. Fuck the critics.
Damn Herzog make a sequel with Bruno Ganz as the Vampire! Fegelein! Fegelein!
