Werner HerzogEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

Director Werner Herzog discusses Les Blank’s film Burden of Dreams, with fellow Director Ondi Timoner in a Q&A at the DGA theater in Los Angeles. In the conversation, he discusses the value he saw in Blank documenting the making of Fitzcarraldo, shares further insight into aspects of the shoot the documentary didn’t cover, and reflects on his memories of the late Actor Claudia Cardinale. Screened as part of the DGA’s Documentary Series, the film follows Director Werner Herzog during the filming of Fitzcarraldo, the story of one man’s attempt to build an opera house deep in the Amazonian jungle. As the production unfolds, the crew has to overcome a number of setbacks, including difficult Actors, unpredictable weather and the logistics of getting a boat over a mountain, all with the determination of realizing Herzog’s vision.

Maureen Gosling is not only the editor of my favourite documentary film of all time, but quite possibly my favourite film of all time. Period. That film is Les Blank’s Burden of Dreams , starring Werner Herzog. And as we near our finale episode for Season One of the show, I thought it might be a great time to have someone like Maureen on to the show, not only because I would get the opportunity to hear some Les Blank , Werner Herzog & Klaus Kinski stories, but also because editing is something that we often like to champion here on the show. I believe editing to be one of the most underrated positions in all of film. Plus, I know that we have a lot of #doclifers out there who are currently in post production on their doc film! Topics Discussed how a chance encounter with Les Blank would start her down the road of documentary being sued by Drew Barrymore for the use of the name Flower Films stories about her and Les’ experience documenting Werner Herzog with their film Burden of Dreams touring in Latin America showing their films and working with Latin American filmmakers lessons & tips for working with indigenous cultures Related Sources ° Watch the trailer for Burden of Dreams https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYOYi9WLLVU ° Watch the trailer for A Dangerous Idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26ZIfvWWqDA ° Watch the trailer for The Long Shadow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RENJTepMW-4 Sponsors & Thank Yous Free Music Archive – Special Thank You to recording artist, Dlay who supplied music for this week’s episode of TDL .
