Herzog does alright here, partially I think because Roger Ebert (who's treated as gospel to many Chicago filmgoers) worships him. Unfortunately The White Diamond only had a one week showing, so I was unable to catch it. This film is coming out in December on DVD I believe, so best of luck finding it. Lately a lot more of his work is being released, as New Yorker put out some rather long OOP early films from him. I honestly hope it doesn't take his death for people to notice his whole body of work.
