Early in Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Werner Herzogpoints out that the artist appears to be capturing a sense of movement, an almost “proto-cinema” style of representation where a beast is drawn with 8 legs instead of four, which suggests movement, said “For them, the animals perhaps appeared moving, living [...] almost a form of proto-cinema."For Herzog, these drawings felt like "frames from an animated film."
Protocinema was named to...

"He Suo's 3D Mysterious Sleepwalking": A dialogue between the two parties of He Suo
How much surprise can the young German director Werner Herzog bring us? The left-handed documentary and the right-handed feature film are not only easy to do, but the award-winning record is also eloquent. The quality and quantity are amazing. Today, his tentacles extend to the most popular 3D technology, but he is not focusing on commercial blockbusters, but documentaries. It's no wonder that Horso is not a master of the movies.
The 3D Mysterious Sleepwalking by Horso is the Grotte... -

The eternal reality in the forgotten dream
In the depths of the cave, there is a wolf's claw mark beside the footprints of an eight-year-old boy. Are they walking side by side? Or is it that the hungry wolf is tracking the boy, or the footprints of the two are thousands of years apart?
Time is sealed in Xiaowei Cave, standing still, you will hear your own heartbeat. Tiny you and me, holding torches in hand, bending forward along the trail, a certain feeling of anxiety and irration strikes, as if we interrupted the work of people in... -

Herzog’s documentary filmed in a narrow space also has a dramatic effect. A pilgrimage through French cave paintings 30,000 years ago makes the film more surreal, an artistic style that transcends time and history. The cave metaphor of Plato's Utopia is not necessarily unfounded. We are convinced that the ancestors who first walked down the mountain to build a livable city, but the art of the so-called beginning of civilization is not comparable to primitive rock paintings. Dueling rhinos,...

I watched this movie as an archaeology graduate student. The reason is simple: the producers of channel 4 TIME TEAM strongly recommend this movie, and the engineers of visual lab in kcl strongly recommend this movie, even the archaeology of our college Scientists are always mentioning this film, wondering what kind of film it is that fascinates these people so much.
What I want to say is simple, life is just a dream.
Leaving aside the delicate technology of 3D, when the...

Nicholas Conard: I think what's extremely important is that we realize that archeology today is not a heroic adventure with spades and picks, but high tech scientific work that's done with incredible detail.

Werner Herzog: Crocodiles have been introduced into this brooding jungle and warmed by the water to cool the reactor, man do they thrive. There are already hundreds of them. Not surprisingly, mutant albinos swim and breed in these waters. A thought is born of this surreal environment. Not long ago, just a few thousand years back, there were glaciers here 9,000 feet thick. And now a new climate is steaming and spreading. Fairly soon, these albinos might reach Chauvet caves. Looking at the paintings, what will they make of them? Nothing is real. Nothing is certain. It is hard to determine whether these creatures are dividing into their own doppelgangers and do they really meet or is it just their own imagining mirror reflection? Are we today the crocodiles who look back into the abyss of time when we see the paintings of Chauvet cave?
