I already told you to see this film, but I'm going to mention it again.

Little Dieter Needs to Fly was a powerfully incantatory film, in part because of the actual Dengler's matter-of-fact description of running barefoot through the tangled tropical foliage—dodging monsoons, sliding down ravines, fending off leeches, eating snakes, and fighting delirium as well as sudden attacks by Laotian tribals. Rescue Dawn, which rivals Apocalypto as a jungle marathon, has all this and more. Bale even looks authentically starved (as in The Machinist) ... Rescue Dawn is the closest thing to a "real" movie that Herzog has ever made.

A conversation with Charlie Rose and actor Christian Bale about his new movie Rescue Dawn. The film is based on the true story of Dieter Dengler, a fighter pilot shot down during the Vietnam war and taken hostage at a POW camp.

Here are more quotes from an interview with Herzog:

What's your next adventure as a "soldier of cinema"?

I shot a film in Antarctica. The tentative title is Encounters at the End of the World. It's not about fluffy penguins—but it does have a sequence about insanity and a primitive form of prostitution among penguins.

Can you wait?
