Is this the feeling and effects that werner Herzog movies have? I watch this and feel compassionate, almost nostalgic. Its dream like and puts me in a state of attentiveness.
My heart aches for all the native people around the world who've suffered forever in the hands of greedy business men. Great movie. Thanks for sharing it. 🖖🌻💚
If you buy shit there'll always exist "greedy business men" ( now they call themselves philanthropists) it's quite simple....the firs step is not being naive or hypocrites ourselves.
Thank you for putting this up. I had read about the brilliant scene where "the mute" appears years ago. Never had the opportunity to watch the movie though. This is one of those films you must watch even if it breaks your heart.
This is easily within my top 10 most appreciated films. As is Paris, Texas… but the latter has me the torn and frayed ends of my long broken heart… where as this one ploughs my soul.
It's worth a try. Years ago, after having my mind blown by a Herzog season at my local arthouse cinema in Australia, I emailed his production company to ask where I might be able to get a copy of Even Dwarfs Started Small with English subs, and I got sent a VHS dub (it was a long time ago!) with a handwritten note from Lucki Stipetic, Herzog's producer and half-brother!
@@stephenmmorgan that’s awesome man! Btw I ended up just switching regions on Amazon. Ordered it from some library in Seattle. Great condition. Great film.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A never forgotten film I happened to see at age 20 in a Brussels movie theatre, at the time of its release. Quite Pasolinian, in some way. The trial scene is just so strong, literally overwhelming... Total shame, once again, on the arrogant self-proclaimed Western "civilization"... (Personally always sided with the last true Homo sapiens -- in this case the Australian Aboriginals).
I really didn't understand the subplot of th lost dog & Colleen Clifford as Miss Strehlow. I understand that Strehlow was an important name in colonial - Central Australian First Nations Peoples but that's all.
Well, if he ran to the last car in the train, conceivably, he could perhaps jump off the rear car, to the ground as the train plummeted into the abyss....or something.
Dear thepostarchive - thanks for posting this film which I was glad to watch. I think that you should amend the top of your intro to make it clear that the film finishes some 20 mins before you expect it to. Knowing how long a film is/where ou are in it, can make loads of difference to how one watches, and to be surprised by a sudden end 20 mins early isn't great.
@@mikedowns8293 Ah - no - it's just when I watched it there were 20mins of black screen after the film finished! Doesn't seem to be happening now - anyway not a big deal.
What you stooges are even talking about? Are you Marvel's ant-man or something to be so worried with scientific exatitude? This scene is mocking such trivial details on what are noithing more than human matters. Even kids can understand aesop's fables, or metaphors such as the insects in this movie. To feign utter ignorance or pretend to know more than others its necessary a academic degree, I guess...
No one trying to listen development must be for sustainability not sustainable development. Mixing night soill with water a sustainable development but against law of nature and against sustainability. For sustainability it's recycling needed not destruction with water. No one has got right to allow its flushing with water out of home. All we, behaving like knowing all...
@@theexpresidentshow nasty, maybe this is an indigenous person who lived on country and didn’t got to school as much as you. Why are you even interested in such a film with that much ignorance, judgement and prejudice. English is their second language. Are you smart enough to be bilingual? What a troll
I love this movie as I lives in Australia since 1986 ..but the end say it all ..man greed and ego , even from the more naive one take over ...the good guy end up with a big plane , useless for him and die in the ego and process..but he sign off his land to the devil for a big plane !!!!
It’s a sad reality. Giving blankets to Native Americans infected with smallpox virus, killing all the buffalo to destroy a way of life etc,etc. Broken treaties broken lives. Treating the original owners and keepers of all land around the world as unworthy pests is the obvious issue.
Amazing film. Wikipedia has a good page on the film, which has some reference to a real case, Milirrpum vs. Nabalco 1971. It´s a complex issue overall, since Western business people using sci-tech has assumed control of world affairs overall since the Industrial Revolution, and shifting that power structure requires empowering citizens in communities everywhere, including indigenous people. It requires uplifting a greater balance in education for sustainability and human rights, and pro-social co-operative economics, along with spiritual-religious phenomena and knowledge. Human Rights Watch has updates on aboriginal issues. The not for profit Cultural Survival Qtly offers their current issue as a pdf, no less. I´ve been interested in eco-social justice not for profits since starting with the PIRGs in the US, where I learned about the US´s Sierra Club and Greenpeace´s international work, and later Oxfam. In the US, food co-op stores have been a movement since the 1970s, joining credit unions, and green power co-ops. The internaitonal co-op organization ICA was founded in 1895, the ILO has had a co-op office, the US founded NCBA in 1920, and the UN COPAC in 1970. The UN Permanent Forum for INdigenous People was founded around 2000. The World Social Forum followed the UN environmental conference Global People Fora like 1992 Rio Summit. Solidarity Economics is an activist co-op movement, that parallels Fair Trade.
One thousand years from now, what will it matter? Everything alive lives then dies. Human meaning is just the latest fad: one paragraph in a book written by nature.
In Russia, tzarist, communist - or other - there would have been no issue. Ruskies would make a quick use of tommy-guns, make the "plaintiffs" rest and dream in a collective pit. This is how things work in that empire. I actually liked the manners and attitude of the judge. The "defendants" acted like gentlemen too.
didnt you ever hear about national of bolsheviks? you - with surename 'Novak', must be some Polack or Czech, so if you arent stupid provocateur must be Juicy genocider like your idol Netanyahu. Nailed?
How did I not know about this movie? As an Australian and a big admirer of Werner Herzog, this is right up my alley.
Thats Right ! Been Right my alley too - Love his work - And the soundtracks- The Enigma of Kasper Hauser - ❤

BooHooHoo

That's a dumb view of history
I’m glad to find this. Herzog is always interesting and any movie featuring Australia always makes me happy

Thanks so much for uploading this. I had heard about it years ago but never seen it till now. Excellent film. I won't forget this.
This movie broke my heart. Probably one of the most beautiful and sad films Werner ever produced.
Thank you for for opportunity to watch this amazing movie again
Three Mad Max series alums in this movie: Hugh Keayes-Byrne, Bruce Spence and Max Fairchild.
You forgot Nick Lathouris, who appeared in the original as the mechanic, and later went on to co-write _Fury Road._
But 3/4 ain't bad.
@@theexpresidents I thought I recognized some people from the Mad Max films.
Great movie. Herzog is wealth of ! An Australian film called " OUTBACK in (70's), similar tracks of thought, but has female actress.
Thank you for this unexpected gem. ❤
1:11:21 the silent one
Filmed in Coober Pedy SA.
So glad to have this opportunity to watch it,! I am a fan of Herzog, and will be telling my boyfriend!
We are all still stuck in the lift.
I love this movie, one of my all time favorites.
What would you do ~ If I bring bulldozer and pick-up your church ?
This film is an underrated masterpiece. Far better than the winner of Cannes in the same 1984, "Paris, Texas", I think.
This is easily within my top 10 most appreciated films. As is Paris, Texas… but the latter has me the torn and frayed ends of my long broken heart… where as this one ploughs my soul.
Interezting- they where the same year,,
so was there any actual study on these green ants
They've taken the plane ~ to where the green ants dream ......
Bruce Spence and Hugh Keys burn are both in mad max
Anyone know where I can get a dvd copy of this film? I’ll ask Herzog himself if I have to...

This and many others are in the Herzog collection volume 1. You can find it on Amazon.
From Terence Wise in UK…….Shows the disconnect between modern humans and our environment,we grow rich and become more impoverished.
Fear of death, which greed is no antidote for.

The guy at the start of the movie is the guy in mad max he is the pilot in mad max 1
Do we see the Green Ants at any point?
yea briefly when we meet the scientist
No body left who he can speak with.
I know how he feels.
Yeah well. I was part of surveying the 2nd Mintabie airstrip, so the old one could be mined.
A death of a language is death of a 😭culture, more civilized world ruined the earth worst like anything 😭😭😭
Too bad your culture wasnt extirpated: then I wouldn't have to see your emojis
Styx got me here.
@EndlessGray ya, me too.
Styx who? Hexenhammer? Lol
who the hell cares?
What song do they mention this in?
RUclips's subtitles are so worthlessly bad they're comical.
Colonisation went on and on and on and on...
And still does

And you're using a fruit of colonization: your fucking internet.

With a desert some machinery and british sooner or later you get Mad Max...
There will be good out of bad...
