-THE ISLAND LIFE-

Werner Herzog is admired for being the only director who was able to work with the late and very eccentric Klaus Kinski. How does he do it? Well, threatening to shoot him might be part of it, as he did while filming "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" (1972).

"Yes, I did that. I said to him that there was a line that neither he nor I could cross; we had a higher duty than ourselves. I told him it was impermissible for him to walk away. I explained to him calmly that he would not survive if he tried. I had a rifle, not in my hands, and I told him I would shoot him. He understood this was not a joke. He screamed for the police. The nearest police station was 40km away. And for $20 flat they would have testified to it being a hunting accident."

Herzog and Kinski had met many years earlier, when the struggling young actor rented a room in Herzog's family's apartment. Kinski's antics during the three months he lived there left a lasting impression. Years later, Herzog knew the volatile actor was the only possible man who could play the mad Aguirre, and sent Kinski a copy of the screenplay. "Between three and four in the morning, the phone rang," Herzog recalled. "It took me at least a couple of minutes before I realized that it was Kinski who was the source of this inarticulate screaming. And after an hour of this, it dawned on me that he found it the most fascinating screenplay and wanted to be Aguirre."

Despite a history of difficult film productions, Herzog is proud of the fact that his films have never gone over budget. How does he do it? Reportedly, at the start of each shooting day he tallies up the money every part of the production is spending, and puts a stop to anyone who's using too much.

Herzog once promised to eat his shoe if a young American film student went out and actually made the film he was always only talking about. The young student was Errol Morris, who met the challenge with his off-beat 1978 pet cemetery documentary "Gates of Heaven" (and went on to make "The Thin Blue Line" (1988) and "Fast, Cheap & Out of Control" (1997)). Herzog makes good on his promise in the film "Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe" (1980), directed by Les Blank.

Is there any Nostr NIP that specifies an event music, tracks, bands?

I imagine a world where stuff like Nostr.band allows us to also search for music, and then the artist can host their music whenever they'd want using relays.

What do you think?

Thanks!
