'Stroszek' may be my favorite Warner Herzog movie, and it is certinally near the center of the Venn diagram of the directors work. Partly filmed and set in Germamy, partly filmed and set in America, a cast largley of non actors in a lose story, documentary like. It concerns three eccentric Germans who immigrate to Wisconsin in pursuit of the American dream, which dosen't work out. It is extremely Herzog, yet also I would think more easy accessible to a broad audiance then most of his works. Full of moments of melonchlole and beauty with a memorable and unexpected ending and effective central performances. I watched it three times. ****
