I think somone was harking back recently to the glory days of the 80s when BBC2 was awash with art house fillums. Well buckle up lads, it's Werner Herzog night on BBC4 next Saturday with Fitzcarraldo and Aguirre. Plus, BBC2's showing "The Sweet Smell of Success" earlier on in the afternoon. Simply one of the best films ever, ever, ever.
