Review of Heart of Glass (1976) by Wahida K — 13 Dec 2009
This is notoriously considered Herzog's most cryptic film; indeed, it's the one where he hypnotized much of the cast which gives it a hallucinatory and static feel. I am not sure what to say, except it's a highly demented look at the collective madness that overcomes a town as well as, paradoxically, a moving film about getting lost in apocalyptic fantasies.
The last ten minutes are completely stunning.
