Depression is like a loop of sadness feeding it self. You need to step out of yourself so you can watch the absurdity from outside, a good laugh can heal you a bit even if it’s yourself and the situation you’re at. For me, who never thought I could get depress, it came as a shock when I realized it. Humor can help, but can also we a cover up, like a clown. The real insight I had was I had to stop hating myself, feeling guilty for stuff I had no power over and fix the things I can change even if it’s just one at a time. People without flaws ain’t human, so don’t beat yourself up, just accept them and move on!

I have met enough demented screamers in marketing to know that the best approach is to respond calmly and factually. Two people screaming achieves nothing and the adult in the room almost always wins. It takes practice. I used to yell back and my bosses would have to get involved and that reflects badly on me.

​@@dolsopolar idk know anything about those two but i know a bit about psychopathy. My guess is that Herzog didn't always realize the truth in the situation. Herzog stories could be made up for himself as much as for the audience. For example eating the last food while stranded. An intelligent psycho might have had food hidden or even if he wasn't smart if he hadn't thought that far ahead would have been capable of just taking the last food by force. Most people don't realize the ease with which a psycho can take charge of a situation. If the psycho is intelligent they may always have some degree of control whether the other person knows or not and if they don't have control they can take it with ease and feel no remorse or having no second thought of disposing of their rival for survival with same ease that they would dispose of a chocolate wrapper probably even feeling good or empowered. We never really know who or what someone is, the ones capable of true "evil" are especially good at hiding it.

i love Werner Herzog so much. i realized finally that his real gift is amazing empathy for people who are a little strange. in his documentaries you always see these incredible people who are really weird or who have suffered terrible trauma. and it would be so easy to make fun of them or just narrate their lives. but he just throws one question out, or makes a statement to elicit the person to think about something and then talk about it. and then he just shuts up and listens. it's really a superpower i wish i had.

I blame the public much more who treated Kinsky's overtly psychopathic behavior as a fun excentricity, the kind of which artists are allowed to have without being frowned at as freaks or worse as normal people would who publicly rage and hurt like he did. He should have been looked at by child services no matter what coworkers knew and alarmed authorities about or not.

One of my favorite films. It's just so difficult for me to watch Klaus after what his daughters have came out and said about him after his death. He was apparently sexually abusive towards his daughters, specifically the oldest girl got most of the abuse. I really try to separate the man from the art but it's EXTREMELY difficult in this case, maybe impossible. And of course he was never convicted and there is no hard "evidence" but I doubt they would all lie... Idk it's a difficult situation to say the least.

There's a moment in Herzog's film about his relationship with Kinski called, "My Best Fiend," where they are in the steamship on a river in Peru while shooting Fitzcarraldo. Right after they shoot a scene where the ship comes loose and violently collides with the shore, a record player is playing opera throughout, Kinski is bandaging up a cameraman who split his hand open in the collision and Herzog takes a big hit on a bottle of booze. Just insane.

But Herzog's version is just masterful. The opening scene with the Mummies of Guanajuato and Popol Vuh's score is one of the most chilling sequences that has ever been put on film. Even though Dracula doesn't appear until half an hour into the movie, you feel his presence right from the opening shot.

"he'd be a dead man within 30 seconds" The weird thing is that unlike with most other people who would utter such a sentence, with Herzog... I kinda believe it. He has this weird intensity to him - even when (or perhaps especially when) he remains super calm. Watching the behind the scenes footage from back then, I can sort of understand why the natives were more afraid of him and his calmness than of Kinski and his ridiculous outbursts. All that said: I think they are/were both madmen in their own ways. But on top of that, Kinski, from all the info that surfaced about him in recent years, seems to also have been a truly despicable human being.

FUN FACT: Klaus Kinsky sexually abused his daughter (Pola Kinsky) when she was a young child. It begun when she was 5 years old and stopped as soon as she reached the age of 18. Pola Kinsky has said that she feels ill every time she sees people in the media idolizing her father. Especially when they claim that his madness was the sure sign of him being a genius. When in reality, his madness was monstrously vile.

There's a very interesting interview online in German with Walter Saxer (Saxer is the producer of 5 Kinski movies). Saxer portrays Kinski as a demanding but also outstanding actor for whom he has enormous respect: “Kinski was someone who created such a high tension on set that you had to concentrate so much and make sure that no one made a stupid comment. He [Kinski] became livid when he had people around him who weren't totally concentrating on the scene like he was and then he didn't let the director tell him anything because he said: 'Shut up. I know what I'm doing here'. Saxer goes on to say that this attitude was justified because otherwise it would have been a lukewarm film, as was seen in the first material from “Fitzcarraldo” (originally with a different leading actor).

The infamous Herzog-Kinski relationship resembles one-to-one the irritating O'Brien-Schlanski relationship in it's own horrific beauty. A Kinski may have been gone, but a Schlanksi has been risen. Kinski... Schlanski... time keeps repeating itself. And like a mad penguin, running desperately into the wrong direction, O'Brien keeps chasing his nemesis, his counterpart, his fullfilment, to digest and overcome all the painful dinner scenes from his childhood, fighting for food with his brother Neil.

I genuinely believe Werner Herzog is one of the greatest deadpan comedians who has ever lived. I've heard people say he's unintentionally funny, but I've spent enough time around Germans to know they don't do anything unintentionally.

This is the topic I was waiting on Conan to bring up! I've been fascinated by this mad man for many years! His daughters have leveled some abhorrent claims about him posthumously. I believe them, but it is hard to hear/read on multiple levels for me. For one because I somewhat liked the man despite how easily it was to hate him. Klaus was so unique and crazy that it requires a level of fascination by me, but the second reason that makes it hard to hear/read about him sexually abusing his daughters is that I have a woman in my life that (I won't get specific about who) was also abused sexually by her father until she left home and it's BEYOND horrific. I see what it does to a human being. I CAN NOT separate the art from the man in this case. I have with many artists but I CANNOT DO IT in this situation. The guy was most likely a abhorrent human and I'm not sure how I'm going to weight this against his amazing acting and his unusual and unique, at times comical temper.

Kinski received some exposure in the US in the 1960's with the success of Dr. Zhivago as well as appearing in A Few Dollars More with Clint Eastwood. Likewise Herzog's Aguirre The Wrath of God and Nosferatu established a repertory film presence in the US in the 1970's. Herzog's Mein liebster Feind widely established the legend of Kinski as notoriously volatile and volcanic, if not borderline insane. Herzog's transition from moderately obscure but successful "art house" director into pop culture status with his Jack Reacher and Mandalorian appearances created more exposure for Kinski as new Herzog fans discovered the films Kinski did with Herzog.

What's with these comments about Conan taking a couple minutes to express his question? It's concerning that many people can so easily fail to recognize that great conversation - and Conan is an excellent conversationalist - involves considered, present, careful, fleshed-out expression (on both sides of the dynamic) in order to satisfy its potential. And it's not some stroke of genius or extraordinary depth of patience to realize that... It actually just goes without saying. It's not like he was droning on or wasting his time, or ours... He was articulating his curiosity, and effectively so, as is standard and usual for him. Good conversation, of any kind, anywhere, between anyone, is an enlightening interaction. Conan and Werner, here, are just another in an infinite line of individuals doing it well! It's great to enjoy... 👍

Fun fact: Kinski was in a movie called Venom (1981) that starred Oliver Reed, Nicol Williamson, and Sterling Hayden who were all known to be heavy drinkers and difficult to work with. However, when all three realized they’d be working with Kinski they all agreed to be on their best behavior and tone down the drinking for the directors sake. Well almost, Oliver reed still would prank Kinski from time to time, but hey nobody’s perfect😂🤷🏻‍♂️
