"Lessons of Darkness" (1992, Dir: Werner Herzog) w/ Dom Sinacola (Portland Mercury)

This week, Matt and Corbin are joined by DOM SINACOLA (Film Critic at The Portland Mercury, The Werner Hertzblog) to talk about LESSONS OF DARKNESS, Werner Herzog's impressionistic non fiction essay movie about the burning oilfields of Kuwait in the wake of the first Gulf War. Topics include: is this movie responsible? Germany in the post war, Herzog and truth and lies, and other stuff. Honestly it's been a while since we recorded it, so it's possible I'm missing something.  Check out the show on Letterboxd if you're into that thing. Matt is also on there. And we got a Bluesky going. Next episode is about "The White Ribbon," which is streaming somewhere, probably.
