Synopsis

Watch: Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe 1980 123movies, Full Movie Online – A passionate cook, acclaimed filmmaker Werner Herzog stuffs some culinary aromatics into his shoe and uses the laces to truss it like a chicken, before he sticks it into a pot with water and duck fat to stew it. It is so that he can bring the stewed shoe to one of the first screenings of Errol Morris’ debut film Gates of Heaven (1978) to eat it. This act will fulfill his loss of a bet to Morris, who he met as a student filmmaker, that he would never be able to make a movie. The bet was not Herzog’s attempt of a jab against Morris, but rather to support a struggling but gifted Morris in his quest to do whatever was required to finance a movie project. In the process of eating the shoe, Herzog wants to encourage other aspiring filmmakers, and to set an agenda of increasing what he calls adequate images as a true reflection of the world..
Plot: A short documentary in which directors Werner Herzog and Errol Morris make a bet which results in Herzog being forced to eat his own shoe.

Short, strange, fun
Werner Herzog has put his mark on the world of movies, even though you may not know the name right away- he made “Fitzcarraldo” the movie about the opera fan who halls a boat over a mountain. This documentary is shot by Les Blank and details a bet Herzog made to a friend that he would eat his shoe if his friend completed a film. Well, Herzog does have to eat his shoe. And it’s very weird, but Herzog is a bit of an odd guy himself. It’s a short enough documentary and fun to watch. This documentary is one of two about Herzog- the other is an award winning “Burden of Dreams” about the filming of Fitzcarraldo. I highly suggest checking it out if you enjoy this.
Review By: kulaboy
Very funny and even a little profound
Entertaining, funny, and oddly thought provoking 20 minute short, in which, quite literally, director Werner Herzog eats his shoe.

He does it in response to a bet he made with then budding, but procrastinating film-maker Errol Morris. He told Morris that if he ever finally got a feature finished, he’d eat his shoe. And so he does, after cooking it, in front of a live audience before the local premiere of Morris’ great first feature ‘Gates of Heaven’.

As enjoyably silly as it all is, Herzog also makes some real points about needing to be willing to do foolish things to encourage art and artists, and that only by risking being absurd can we have the hope of transcending.
