With nothing left in Berlin, alcoholic ex-con busker Bruno S. takes his prostitute girlfriend and decrepit neighbor and emigrates to a wintry post-Bicentennial Wisconsin. “One of the oddest films ever made” per Roger Ebert, Herzog’s riotous picaresque offers unforgettable images—that dancing chicken!— and a truly haunting snapshot of the American Dream deferred.
