Woyzeck (1979)
7/10
Woyzeck, Werner Herzog, 1979
10 July 2003
Woyzeck is a private in the German army, struggling to maintain his sanity in a world that torments him at every step. Suspecting his wife of infidelity and abused both physically and mentally by his superiors, his problems come to a head in a shocking final act. Kinski is brilliant here as the disturbed soldier, as is Eva Mattes as his wife. There are a few scenes here that aren't brilliant, but this is a very good Herzog film.

7/10.
