Thanks a lot, Nick.
My class was planning on going to the Werner Herzog lecture. Despite arriving almost fifteen minutes early, we were greeted by an absolutely packed auditorium. Soon we were shooed away from the entrance by a man in a suit with a German accent.
I really wanted to go, too. Herzog is a fascinating character — you know, he once kept his lead actor from quitting by threatening to shoot him? I envy those who are at this moment basking in the director’s eccentricities while he muses on humanity’s most turbulent century.
The extent to which the department has The Spin to thank for the full house is difficult to ascertain. In any event, let’s hope the DP gives us some good coverage tomorrow.
