Clan of Ze Cave Bear
Dec. 2nd, 2011 09:53 pmFinally got to see Cave of Forgotten Dreams on DVD - the transfer from 3D to 2D is a bit dizzying, and green_trilobite said he was glad there were sequences between the actual scenes in the Chavet Cave, as he found the footage claustrophobic.
Oh and at the end, as if to remind you he's Werner Herzog -- albino crocodiles! In a giant glass reptile house heated by the local nuclear power plant!
ETA - apparently Herzog has said he just made up the bit about the crocodiles. Oh you crazy German auteur. They *were* real albino crocs in a zoo, though. Maybe it just wasn't really within 20 miles of the cave?
