    Herzog did this for a reason. I’ve never not heard of him not being deliberate. So cool. Such a great filmmaker, storyteller, and artist. He’s on that Kubrick, lynch, Scorsese level of cinematic artist.

    • @psychomantis183
      @psychomantis183 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Kubrick is king and Scorsese not on their level.

      It was just getting started and I noticed I was halfway through. Damnit.
      But, what it lacks in duration it does NOT lack in content.

    God. What a contrast. I was born in California in 1943. My brother and I would whine for soda or candy to my German great-aunt who was fostering us. She memorably said "What do you want me to do? Cut it out of my leg?"
    While it did shut us up, the aura of possibility still lingered. Could she?
    How fortunate we were.

    @FlyingVFan 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    Enlightening interview. Steve and Werner have starkly different world views.
    Every assumption Steve made towards Werner's intentions and perceptions were based on cold logic and harsh reality. Werner shot him down every time. Steve, you were talking to an artist long in tooth, not the mirror. This was a good opportunity to be inquisitive and receptive.
    An invigorating episode, chock full of misunderstandings on part of the interviewer. An excellent look into the meateating media-minded mogul that we all adore, revealing his hubris towards his own notoriety and boundless intellect.
    Werner was a wonderful guest.

    • @benredacted8468
      @benredacted8468 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It can be confusing to have dialogue with someone with such ego and perceived intelligence 😂 Steve had to work through the dripping condisention.

    Werner Herzog is probably my favorite movie director of all time. His movies are totally unique & unlike anything else being made. His movies from early in his career from the 1970s are masterpieces.

      It's pretty incoherent. There is a schizophrenia in most modern Germans after the war. Not anything that he said is backed up by evidence but the propaganda is so pervasive before school, through school, throughout society. It's like someone being beaten and constantly told it's because they're bad
      It fk's Germans up. Has for several generations

    The rapport between Herzog and Rinella appears to be quite thin. Herzog comes across as candid and unashamed, while Rinella, I infer, grew up poor and is ashamed about it. There's a prevailing sense of embarrassment in American culture regarding poverty and lower socioeconomic status. It seems that a significant aspect of the MeatEater show is to overlay hunting with a superficial layer of spirituality and polish.

    I'm glad he didn't include that audio, and I'm not surprised he was willing to do battle to keep it out of there. If you're curious what a man being slaughtered and eaten by a Grizzly Bear sounds like, you should spend time wondering why. I can't imagine a more terrifying, brutal, and terrible way to die. And you want to hear what it sounds like? I have more respect for Werner than almost all of the artists I look up to, and I would have lost some of that if he had. Just as a side note, I had to pickup Werner from that house they're in once early in the morning to take him to the airport, and just let me say meeting your heroes is typically disappointing, but not in his case. He is exactly as he appears, and I wish I had been able to drive him to where ever his plane was going.
