Name a better documentary director than Herzog
protip: You can't
>>63388924
But why?
His documentaries aren't even his best films

Scorsese is a far superior documentary filmmaker.
>>63389360
Little Dieter Needs to Fly is my favorite documentary
>>63389360
>Fitzcarraldo
Is this film even worth watching?
The pic makes it look dark and edgy
Yeah that Loch Ness doco he did with Zak Penn was really good.
Alex Gibney
herzog would be the first to admit that errol morris is a better documentarian

Its his most accessible work. Fitzcarraldo is more focused on the grandious side of adventure than the usual meditative semi-hypnagogic reflections on man and nature characteristic of his auvre.

Pic related, though it is debatable whether Nanook of the North is really a doc.

Chris Marker. Herzog is good though.

I'm not. Scorsese picks interesting subjects rather than edgy exploitation. Herzog could NEVER make that George Harrison documentary the way Scorsese did. And The Last Waltz? Herzog would be totally clueless.

Adam Curtis has taught me more than any documentary film director, though you could argue that he is more of a glorified film editor.
the civil war by ken burns :^)
