Werner Herzog

Werner Herzog

Wuchs als Kind auf einem einsamen Bauernhof in den oberbayerischen Bergen auf, er sah weder Film und Fernsehen, noch kannte er das Telefon. Sein erstes Telefonat führte er mit 17 Jahren. Gründete 1963 seine eigene Produktionsfirma Werner Herzog Filmproduktion in München. Kam 1978 bei der Premiere von Gates of Heaven seinem öffentlichen Versprechen nach, seine eigenen Schuhe zu essen, sollte es Errol Morris gelingen, seinen geplanten Film über Tierfriedhöfe zu realisieren. Er wollte Morris damit nach eigenem Bekunden motivieren. Zeichnet sich neben zahlreichen Spielfilmen auch immer wieder durch brillant fotografierte und feinfühlige Dokumentationen aus, wie 2004 in Grizzly Man. Bekleidete 2010 das Amt des Jurypräsidenten bei den Internationalen Filmfestspielen von Berlin 2010. Wurde am 11. Mai 2010 im Namen des französischen Staatspräsidenten mit dem Orden eines Offiziers der Ehrenlegion ausgezeichnet. Sagt über seine Arbeitsweise: "Ich arbeite permanent, praktisch rund um die Uhr - mehr will ich dazu gar nicht sagen... ich wirke vielleicht manchmal wie ein Workaholic - aber das bin ich nicht. Ich bin äußerst organisiert, professionell, sehr effizient und leise. Auf meinen Sets werden Sie höchstens ein Flüstern hören - niemals ein lautes Wort." ~ Rovi
