ROGUE FILM SCHOOL
KvP:
ROGUE PLASTIC BAG
Buttfranklin:
Wasn't Herzog rather proud of the fact that he didn't go to film school?
Also, Aguirre, the Wrath of God is a seriously good movie. And true to the director's 'rogue' nature was also shot on a stolen camera.

i almost started watching that plastic bag video and then i just watched werner herzog get shot in the gut and then call it "not a significant bullet"

First of all, you could hardly call the school I go to a film school, since its just a really shitty degree from a middling state school in Maryland.
Second, while I agree that you don't need to go to film school to make movies, all you need to do is watch movies all your life and have really good instincts and shit like Herzog has, but I'm not Werner Herzog, and my parents would disown me if I wasn't going to school for something.
Also I really don't care what the man thinks about school, if he's teaching a seminar then he's being a bit of a hypocrite anyway, even if he's not talking about traditional Hollywood film-making, which our program doesn't really focus on since its a shitty underfunded program that no one has ever graduated from that's been of note.

I don't know shit about shit but I think Buttfranklin's point might have been that he's a bit of a hypocrite to teach a seminar if he didn't go to film school.
I spent a year or so doing sporadic film classes; all I got out of it was officially-sanctioned use of a small classroom as a private office for myself and my friends. It was a good deal.
