Summary
The second in a series: the master filmmaker’s prose scenarios for four of his notable films.
On the first day of editing Fata Morgana, Werner Herzog recalls, his editor said: With this kind of material we have to pretend to invent cinema. And this, Herzog says, is what he tries to do every day. In this second volume of his scenarios, the peerless filmmaker’s genius for invention is on clear display.
