1976: WERNER HERZOG - What Makes GOOD CINEMA? | Omnibus | Classic Interviews | BBC Archive
"Cinema resists, somehow, people who just approach it with their brains."
Werner Herzog talks about searching for new images and trying to find different perspectives in his work and in his ongoing examination of the human condition. He also speaks about how where the new wave of German directors that appeared in the 70s, fit into the nation's cinematic history.
Clip taken from Omnibus: Signs of Vigorous Life - The New German Cinema, originally broadcast on BBC One, Thursday 2 December, 1976.

Crazy that he talks about connection to the cinema of the thirties and this footage is now as far back as the 20/30s was then

Yep, time passes slowly and almost invisibly around us. I've known and watched his work since around 1980, when I was in my teens. A true genius.

It's like foreshortening in perspective; evenly spaced objects close to you seem more distantly spaced than identically spaced objects much further away (and, near the horizon, objects seem impossibly stacked together with seemingly no space between them!).
I love his films and documentaries and it's always fascinating to hear him talk
Filming "Heart of glass".
TIME MAY SEEM TO MOVE SLOW.. LOOK AT THE PAST AND SEE HOW FAST 40 YEARS. RACED BY. SEEMS LIKE I WAS 25 YRS OLD A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. IM 62 YRS OLD.
This was before he got shot through the love heart boxer shirts.
(2:25) Werner and friends go looking for things from a new perspective, from another angle.. In the snow. On a foggy day. "I could've svorn I parked it here, somevare!" "Hurry up with the camera. It's friezing out here!" (3:03) All's well..
I'd love to hear his thoughts on the present world eg. AI, disinformation, Trump etc. He's so damn smart he should be leader of the free world 🌎!!
That was the longest 3 minute video of my life 😂
Too intellectual for me (I thought Wim Wenders were people who sold scouring powder).
Nothing made by this guy.
