Show Notes

Jackie and Greg take on Werner Herzog's descent-into-madness pocket epic from 1972. Topics of discussion include Klaus Kinski's volatile working relationship with Herzog, the themes of colonialism and "playing kingdom", the jungle as a hellscape, Herzog's unusual filmmaking methods, and the far-reaching influence of the film.
