Cave of Forgotten Dreams

Directed By Werner Herzog, who legendary French filmmaker François Truffaut once called, "the most important film director alive", Cave of Forgotten Dreams plunges it's audience into the Chauvet caves of Southern France, capturing the oldest known pictorial creations of humankind in their natural setting.  The 3D made Steezie Coltrane sick and it kind of feels like you just got out of the craziest cave in the world after you walk out the theater.  The music is hella heavy and often Herzog chooses just to roll dope shots of the paintings in the caves over music.  He talks with the world's leading scientists and art historians about the cultural significance of the caves and you really start to relish each image more and more as you begin to understand how valuable these caves (discovered in 1994 by a group of three speleologists: Eliette Brunel-Deschamps, Christian Hillaire, and Jean-Marie Chauvet, for whom it was named) are to humanity.  Pretty much nobody will ever be allowed in there in the future so the film is much like going to visit the art as if it were a museum.
