This is the official website of the extraordinary German film director, producer and writer Werner Herzog (1942- ). The information is very basic but does provide the student with a starting-point for research. There is a news section; a complete list of films giving brief information with a photogallery; a list of his books and a list of books about him. Werner Herzog (real name: Werner H. Stipetic), along with Wim Wenders and Rainer Werner Fassbinder, was considered one of the leading figures among the German 'New Wave' filmmakers of the 1970s. He made a series of remarkable films starring the temperamental but brilliant actor Klaus Kinski (1926-1991), including 'Aguirre, der Zorn Gottes' (Aguirre, Wrath of God) (1972), 'Woyzeck' (1979), 'Fitzcarraldo' (1982) and documented their fiery love-hate relationship in the film 'Mein liebster Feind' (My Best Fiend) (1999). "Every grey hair on my head, I call Kinski," he was reputed to have said! Nevertheless, the films they made together must now be ranked among the best in the history of European cinema. More recently Herzog has taken to documentary filmmaking, 'Grizzly Man' (2005) being an example. ...

It was announced early last month that the Ghost Rider duo, Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes, would be starring in Werner Herzog's take on the 1992 cult classic Bad Lieutenant. Now we also learn today that a slew of others have now joined the cast, notably low-laying Val Kilmer and rapper-turned-actor Xzibit. Kilmer is set [...] ...

One of my earliest transcendent experiences in movies was watching Werner Herzog’s “Aguirre, the Wrath of God” for the first time. He has never quite equaled that achievement, in my opinion. But neither has anyone else. He’s one of the greatest living filmmakers, even though Abel Ferrara wants him to burn in hell. He seemed in a good mood when I talked to him on the phone about his new film, “Encounters at the End of the World.” And why not: it seems that after 40 years of making movies he’s finally getting some notice from audiences in America.   PK: With Encounters at the End of the World, you’re the first filmmaker who’s shot on all seven continents. WH: [laughing] I have to stop you right there, because this is kind of embarrassing,[laughs]. I do not want to end up in the Guinness Book of World Records. PK: I see this was never a goal of yours. WH: No, no, of course not. But you see, there’s also something significant about it. Early in the film Encounters at the End of the World, there’s a fork – a caterpillar driver, and he comes from Bulgaria , and has graduated in philosophy and comparative literature, and he says something very beautiful. He talks about his childhood and how he started to venture out into the world. His grandmother read The Odyssey to him when he was a child, and about the Argonauts, and he said, “In my mind, I started to travel and explore, and in that moment I fell in love with the world.”And I thought, “My ...

The odd partnership between German director Werner Herzog and Polish actor Klaus Kinski is one of the more unknown actor/director duos, but is in my opinion the best, even arguably surpassing the more celebrated collaborations of Akira Kurosawa/Toshiro Mifune and Martin Scorsese/Robert DeNiro. The Herzog/Kinski duo made 5 films together, not including Herzog’s documentary [...] ...
