There are movies, there are directors, and then there are masterpieces and masterful directors. Encounters is a fair masterpiece, especially taken within the body of Herzog’s work. This is a documentary first, noteworthy like Grizzly Man. Grizzly Man

The film in Antarctica itself is goregous. There is a subtle construction by Herzog that feels at first like a random documentary, but then builds over time to something great more than simply another film about “cute penguins”, or planet earth. There is a below the ice and above the ice aspect to this film, physically and about the people. I loved the music, it fits so perfectly with the rythmn. The filming is done extremely well.
Early in the film Herzog promises to not design another film about cute penguins, and he certainly delivers. Although there is a short sequence about a cute penguin, lost walking the obnoxious direction with such determination to his definite death.

The bonus features in this DVD package are fabulous. Aside from the extra footage under the water and flying in a helicopter, there is a second disc. The second disc is almost worth the tag of admission, Johnathan Demme (director of Silence of the Lambs) interviews Werner Herzog for an hour and a half. The conversation is fantastic. Demme opens the conversation reading a letter from Roger Ebert to Herzog(this film is dedicated to Roger) . Suffice it to say, there is nothing I can possibly add to the pudgy conversation. You will have to peep this astounding exchange.
Herzog apparently is highly influenced by music and sound. There is a fairly necessary thread through this film dealing with both. Within two days I have watched two films where sound played a very major role or was another character in the film. I can very highly recommend Fraulein. If you cherish film, I believe you will gain Fraulein equally exciting.
What the recent Amazon listing does not explicitly mention is the wealth of DVD EXTRAS that accompany the 100 slight feature in this 2-DVD status.
