I love it, the ending is just so perfect and beautiful. This
is the rhythm of the night, this is the rhythm of my life,
oh yeah.

im gonna second lost highway if youre going for

aspects in spades.

yeah, for serious. that was so out of nowhere, and it's so
powerful.

i thought about it some, and i figure Aleksandr Sokurov's
recent film about Hirohito, The Sun, would qualify.
Herzog is pretty obsessed with characters who are isolated
in the severity of their vision, one way or another...
Aguirre and Kaspar Hauser spring to mind, but i mean really
so many would qualify.

also Last Days.

Does anyone know the name of the film where there is only a
few people left on the planet? Everyone just disappeared.
The guy starts going mad wearing women’s cloths and
walking around with a shotgun?

No, I don't, but that sounds like an awesome film and I'd be
interested to find out what it is.
