His Masterclass is one of the greatest educations I have ever received.

lockpicking and forging documents

technical things are boring! I did a film 1 year diploma with the intention of going on to doing a degree but realised how it was all about the industry & technical aspects.. got very boring and disillusioned so didnt do that. His film school sounds great though... whats it called?

takeaways: start wit storytellin', keep an open mind, ego in check, walk more, learn lockpicking, forge lotsa documents!

Herzog was my first master class. No bull, a model of self reliance.

Herzog is probably one of the best filmmakers of al-time because of his movies aren't only recognized in Germany, they're also recognized around the world. Furthermore, he's known by hiring, and working constantly with Klaus Kinski, the famous actor with whom he made 5 movies however, both of them were about to kill each other. In fact, while shooting Aguirre the wrath of God, Herzog pulled Kinski a gun because he was going to leave the movie's set.

seriously tho.... THAT ONE DISLIKE maybe does not know the documentaries and films this guy made.

'filmmaking... a personal delineation of borders.' this is so genius omg. Since the beginning of time, storytelling has evolved together with the medium. Yet great storytellers know, by personal experience, given the limited resources for such dimensions for the medium of their time, must know how to scope and make decisions on which to highlight and which needs to be trivialized.

Werner Herzog is and amazing and outstanding gentleman. I can listen to him talk about films all day.

He says not to collaborate too much with the same people. Really? Tell that to Steven Spielberg who has almost exclusively used John Williams to provide the music for most of his films. Or tell that to J.J. Abrams who collaborates with a very closely knit group of film makers.

This was really great advise.

I love this man and his films and process.

Agreed m Shannon is very underrated and has done some great (below the radar) movies!

Genius

Ich liebe Werner Herzog ❤️👍. Ich habe nie jemanden anders kennengelernt der so ist wie dieser Mensch... Bisher..... ausser mir selbst 😱 doch mit noch reichlich weniger Erfahrung als werner Herzog, der wenn er einen Film zum englischen Königshaus machen würde, er zum Sir. ernannt wären würde 👍

I was happy that I did something with something given.

What does he mean at the end when he says if you have something important to do in your life try to do it on foot?

Jan Ringdal. Jeg savner deg.

I always wanted to go to his Rogue Film school, but I suspect he won't run it anymore because he teaches some mass corporate thing online now. But I finally worked on my film to submit for entry into the class. i thought I might get in just because my father looked a lot like him. LOL

I've got to loose my car keys more often...
