Why does Werner Herzog hate chickens?
I'm a huge Werner Herzog fan. The German director is known for strange films about the power of nature, from Lessons Of Darkness - about the oil fires in Kuwait - to the harrowing Grizzly Man, and then Fitzcarraldo. The latter is about pulling a massive steam ship over a hill from one river to the next in the Amazon. The production of that film itself warranted its own documentary, as cast and crew were driven mad by the jungle.
Herzog is also driven mad by chickens albeit in a very self-contained way. I don't think KFC will be calling him for a new spokesman. I find it hilarious.
