Yeah, 
  Last week the UC theatre in Berkeley showed two Herzog films that were
wonderful.  One was "the Enigma of Kaspar Hauser", the other title was
excessively German for me to remember.  
  Kaspar Hauser is an enchanting film about the education of an adult
foundling in a small German village.  There are a number of memorable
scenes, not the least of which is a Philosophy prof coming to determine
whether or not Kaspar is capable of "logical" thought.  Not to be
missed.
   The other film (still unnamed) depicts the difficulties of some
German immigrants to the United States.  I went with a friend from
Germany who had not seen the film since before coming to the U.S. some
three years ago.  Her perceptions of the U.S. had been based largely on
this film, so it was very telling to see her reactions to the film now. 
  Both these films are worth the trip.
