Movie
TLDR
I for one think there's no sweeter show of affection than revisiting the creepy folk civilization we once talked about together.

The take
What stands out
Though arguably more known for his eccentricity, Herzog reminds us that he has space in his heart (and his filmmaking) for more tender and sentimental gestures—and that shouldn't cheapen his films in the eyes of those who admire his artistry. Herzog's final conversations with Chatwin's prose are about as sweet and heartfelt as any eulogy to a close friend. And through this unexpectedly graceful send-off, even the creepiest images we see throughout the rest of the film take on a newfound sense of wonder. If the unfamiliar and the unexplained don't scare us, neither should the void that lies beyond this life.
