Any fans of herzog here? If so, anyone ever seen heart of glass? I really like this film, and was just informed by my girlfriend that the ingredient that makes red glass is gold. So now the whole alchemist thing makes sense. And the fact that the duke was willing to rid the village of gold so that he could make the red glass reappear (not knowing that the gold is necessary for the red glass) all started to come together.
Anyways, anyone who hasn't seen this should. All the actors are hypnotized, so it has this really creepy air about it, because everyones walking around and acting like zombies. Its a bit slow though, so if you can't sit through movies that don't move quickly, don't watch it. But thats kind of the same with most herzog films, anyways.

It bothers you that you haven't seen it yet?
Its good. Not drop everything and go good, but good nontheless. You need to be in the mood for herzog

My girlfriend bought me the box set with heart of glass, strozek, heart of darkness, fata morgana, even dwarves started small, little dieter needs to fly and kaspar hauser for my birthday last year. It has my three favorite ones, strozek, kaspar hauser and lessons of darkness. I just made a thread about heart of glass because I thought the alchemy connection was really neat. I love films like that.
But yeah, see heart of glass as soon as possible. Its still one of his best.
