Vhere's Valdo?

One of the world's great directors, Werner Herzog, gives his take on the classic children's book Where's Waldo.


"We search for Waldo, but what is Waldo searching for?  Perhaps he's not searching at all, but running from something.  Does this man even want to be found?  Or, in searching for Waldo, did we really find ourselves?"
Hyuk hyuk hyuk.  Ok, so it's probably not really Herzog, but it is an entertaining and pitch perfect take on (presumably) the narration of Grizzly Man.  Werner (or the same clever prankster) also does Curious George, Madeline, and Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel.

I hope next up is a reading of Shel Silverstein, with Herzog portraying his best fiend, Klaus Kinski, as the Giving Tree and himself as the little boy.
