You Can Make It Up: Werner Herzog Watches An Episode Of The Hills
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
"What is this? You cannot be serious with this. These girls. These are robot girls? What types of girls are these? One time in the Amazon I saw a woman carrying her baby in a pouch she had slung across her chest, and in one hand she held a bible and in the other hand she held a machete, and she was using the machete to slaughter an old man on the edge of the river. That is how I would wish to die. Do these girls understand death? You cannot understand it by spending so much time at outdoor bistros. There are no shoe shops in hell.
Who will take responsibility for these images? Each image must have a creator, but no one can own an image. It becomes its own entity. It breathes with the fire of life. Why is that girl always on the phone? Is she talking to God? Chit chat chit chat like a little creature in a tree. One time I was in a tree, living in it because I wanted to get a new perspective and I was drinking alcohol that I had made myself in a tin pail and I was momentarily blinded, actually blind, nothing but blackness all around me, and I am in this tree with no escape, and it was at that moment when I was truly free because I knew that—Her eyes are very empty, yes? You see how she confronts the man at the night club but her eyes remain dead? But she looks very realistic for a robot girl. A magic girl. Angry magic.
I wanted to know the truth of obsession, to capture the point at which a human mind breaks. It is harder to find than you might think. We all walk the line between sanity and insanity, but to capture that line for the world to see, that is the trick. Pass me those Doritos chips.
Why are the two robot girls always fighting? The blonde one has no soul. I could make a film of her, just her in a room, sitting in a chair, confronted. Her and the man with the silly beard in a room until they tore each other apart and revealed their mechanics. It would be exhilarating to see this, but also sad. We would ourselves be confronted by what is inside us, which is not so different from these robot girls with their robot hearts. I have seen enough of this, how long have we been watching this? Five minutes is long enough. Let us just sit in the dark for awhile and not speak."
