Curious George Learns A Hard Lesson About Desire


Werner Herzog Reads Curious George

Bleak German director Werner Herzog reads and interprets Curious George: "This should give you a dim view of human potential."

The Man in the Big Yellow Hat is no friend to George — he lures him out of his home, tosses him into a bag and tells him how great his life will be on display in a cage in the zoo. Some friend. And I don't even want to get started on that other child classic Babar, about an elephant that is an old lady's gigolo... From Stupid Is The New Awesome, via The Zeray Gazette.
