Great Ecstasy Of The Sculptor Steiner / How Much Wood Would A Woodchuck Chuck? / La Soufriere

Great review Chris! I am really looking forward to this one. Will you be reviewing White Diamond and Wheel of time too? Can't wait for your Herzog reviews:)

--Ranjan

Ranjan,

I'll be reviewing both of those, but I haven't been able to get copies ahead of time so it might take a while.

Thanks for the compliment.

I must agree with Ranjan, you have written a fantastic review, Chris. This is a DVD I've been waiting awhile for. Ever since my first viewings of the bizarre 'Even Dwarfs Started Small' and the harrowing 'Lessons of Darkness' I've been drawn to Herzog's amazing documentaries (and his features). I've also had 'How Much Wood Would a Woodchuck Chuck?' recommended several times from one of my professors who cites it as one of her favourite shorts. She also told me that she had the pleasure of hearing him speak in person at the VIFF a couple years ago. Let's just say I haven't been more jealous of a person in quite some time. Hehe.

I will be looking forward to more of your great insights into Herzog's films, Chris, particularly a review of Grizzly Man - my pick for the best documentary of the year (thus far).
