"Cave of Forgotten Dreams," Werner Herzog's new epic documentary, is our second film of the Fall series. Herzog takes as his subject the Chauvet caves of southern France, home to some of the oldest painted images in human history. With typical Herzogian style and approach, we consider these archaic images from a totally new perspective. The film has received numerous accolades and has been a huge critical success. "The result is a journey to prehistory that's simultaneously wondrous and tedious, profound and completely nuts -- which is to say, quintessential Herzog," says NPR.Tuesday, July 26, 2011
