I am My Films
(1979, CHRISTIAN WEISENBORN AND ERWIN KEUSCH) "None of my films is cinema verite. It's only the simplest form of truth." Herzog recalls youthful travels in Africa; "with rats nibbling my elbow"; opines on film-making: "Humiliations are an essential part in making films" and on working with actor Klaus Kinski; "temperamentally, he's inclined to hysteria". With clips from his features and documentaries from the 60s and 70s.
