Thank you for reminding me that I really want to see this movie. And I'm so glad to read some new posts from you, hope you are well. xox

I've been hearing about this film forever but I haven't seen it being shown around here. Still keep hoping...

I can't wait to see this film. I love Herzog's movies, he is a true artist. Hearing him talk about the making of this one on NPR was mesmerizing.
