Like when Brendon Small got Werner Herzog to sing for the Metalocalypse opera 😂

Yessssssssssss

I can't not see Herzog on screen and not try doing his voice🤷🏽

I used to be obsessed with telling people how he was shot during an interview and continued the interview like "it's a little blood so what"

Or how on one film he "accidently" set a midget on fire, so to apologize he threw himself into a bed of cactus. Then a PA on the film said "wow you're crazy! I'm going to make a documentary about this!" And Werner Herzog said "if you're film plays in any theater where in America I will eat my own shoe" and do the guy made the film but couldn't get it to play anywhere. So Herzog called up a random theater and asked them to play it for 1 weekend. And they did. So he had to eat his shoe.

There's a documentary about him boiling it for 20hours and attempting to eat it on YouTube🤷🏽

That's one hardcore sonnofabitch 🤣🤣

"it makes me into a clown"

Cut to Orson Wells "muahahhh the French champagne"

Orson fucking committed to that mmmmmmahhhhhhhhhh at the beginning of that commercial didn't he??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Man the amount of work and time put into all those moving sets alone back then is a thing to behold. And somehow it looks better than all that CGI stuff.

Facts

Buster Keaton and all the silent stars really knew how to use the limitations of the medium as strengths

Limitations are the prerequisite of creativity.

I don’t know how I was unaware of this story. 😳

Look into it!
