What matters is the process

The pictures of West German movies have a unique flavor, realistic and cold; without spoilers, the protagonist is an idealist in the front, but unexpectedly it was realized in the back. Not only is there no exaggeration and fiction, but it is accompanied by majestic momentum. The operas of the 2000s give people an uplifting feeling. On the land on the boat is ironic, but it is inspiring here; the already wonderful inspirational stories are run through with Italian operas, adding more beauty; another work of the director, "Card The Mystery of Spa Heber just watched it some time ago, and it is also a stream of consciousness work, and it is also very kind to watch it again. On land and boat, looking at the protagonist's unique German resolute eyes, grabbing courage, I was really moved by it. The German film of 1982 was well shot, and the plots were tightly connected. What matters is not the result, but enjoying the process.

    The slow-paced jungle adventure movie from the perspective of God is indeed an epic in terms of investment and production difficulty. The heroic dream of a straight man.

    Herzog took four years to make a film as crazy as himself, telling the story of a "boat on land" that took place in the tropical rainforest of South America with great fantasies and finally conquered the sky. The participation of the Indians and the inexhaustible difficulty of the mise-en-scene made the filming a documentary. It all reminds me of Kubrick, who was also crazy about "2001: A Space Odyssey," for which Herzog won the Best Director award at the Cannes Film Festival.
