So Kinski gets all the (deserved) acclaim thanks to Mein Leibster Fiend & just the weight of his performances, but I gotta say that Bruno S. more than merits a place at the table. Here's an excerpt from the liner notes of one Herzog boxset, speaking specifically about The Enigma of Kasper HauserQuoteBorn to a prostitute who beat him severely, Bruno was placed in an institution for severely retarded children when he was three. At nine, he made his first escape attempt, and was transferred to a correctional institute. With each subsequent attempt, he was placed in increasingly severe institutions. In the process, he amassed a long record of minor criminal offenses. By the time of his release, he had spent a total of 23 years in captivity. He was, Herzog would say, "as badly mutilated as any man I have ever known." The damage inflicted by that childhood would follow Bruno for years.""In the little town where we shot the film, we were staying in a hotel," Herzog recalls, "but since Bruno was always in a situation in which he believed that he might need to escape and run away immediately, he never slept in a bed...He just had a pillow and a blanket on the ground next to the exit." During the six week shoot, Bruno never once removed his costume.~Jim KnipfelFurthermore, with Stroszek, the character's apartment was Bruno's actual apartment and even the bar featured was Bruno's regular watering hole. Has anybody ever seen the documentary Bruno der Schwarze - Es blies ein Jager wohl in sein Horn from 1970, which is about Bruno's life and is the film that first brought him to Herzog's attention(Bruno der Schwarze was directed by Lutz Eisholz)?
