12.17.06Netflix a semi-documentary of the Kuwaiti oil fields burning after the first Gulf War. I see a definite connection between this and Wild Blue Yonder... and reading an imdb comment that Herzog considers this more of a science fiction film than a documentary film makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately, this didn't translate well at all to me on my tv. Maybe if i saw it in a theater or IMAX screen i'd be more taken with the tragic beauty of all of these helicoptor shots, but as it is I was pretty bored.
