I get the feeling it's one of Herzog's lesser-known documentaries, but everybody I know who's seen it has been wowed. Thanks for dropping by!<BR/><BR/>*Elizabeth: It's a VERY entertaining movie! I think it'd be hard not to go overboard with this mini-challenge, so you won't lack for company in that regard.

Two other fairly recent German films that you might want to consider watching someday are "The Lives of Others" (an intense "political" drama and 2006 Academy Award winner for best foreign language film) and "Mostly Martha" (a sweet romantic comedy that suffered the indignity of a horrible U.S. remake a year or two ago).Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01746599416342846897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1911087927983597831.post-49471313123670299362009-03-09T02:26:00.000-04:002009-03-09T02:26:00.000-04:00that picture of the actor and the director is awes...that picture of the actor and the director is awesome! looks like they had some great fun! thanks for the review, I have yet to see a German film!bethany (dreadlock girl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02565178664993925800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1911087927983597831.post-10450916532240511392009-03-08T16:06:00.000-04:002009-03-08T16:06:00.000-04:00Although I'm not doing the Film Challenge myself, ...Although I'm not doing the Film Challenge myself, I enjoy seeing recommendations for good films, especially foreign ones I know little or nothing about.

The Herzog documentary's a blast, so I hope you get a chance to see it.
