5 Incredible

I was fortunate enough to get tickets to the screening followed by a satellite Q and A with Werner Herzog last night. I am still reeling from what is a masterful piece of film, by arguably the master of documentary himself. The way in which Herzog approaches his subjects is magical, holding no bars in his condemning their crimes and statuses, but with a gentility and humanity that is so nuanced I can't quite describe it. I've just pre-ordered my copy of the DVD and am looking forward to the Death Row Stories, which I think is a series that was cut out of the remaining material after Into the Abyss.
