Werner Herzog, I love you.

Do yourself a favor and see this flick.  (courtesy of Netflix...)  A documentary about the nature of obsession, Dr. Graham Dorrington, a visionary scientist and aeronautics expert, has designed a helium-filled airship for the purpose of exploring the Guyanese rainforest canopy. But Dorrington's motivations are not entirely scientific: A friend's death -- which occurred years earlier during a similar experiment -- still haunts him, driving him to atonement. 

Other rad movies Werner Herzog has either directed or been in:
  • Encounters at the End of the World 
  • On the Ecstasy of Ski-Flying
  • Wheel of Time
  • Mister Lonely 
  • Julian Donkey Boy
  • Grizzly Man
  • My Best Friend, Klaus Kinski
