It’s really boring to listen, even to an intelligent guy like Werner Herzog, as how did the cast came together and who did what.
It would be interesting to say something about the content. It’s origins and so on. The drama as to how it was made seems more interesting to insiders. And I am not one.
I don't get it, is this a remake of the 1992 Abel Ferrara film??
is this picture from his mug shot?
