Lars von Trier vs Werner Herzog
The Danish director has an uncompromising vision - be that of apocalypse, genital mutilation or majestically miserable musicals - but to get there, Lars von Trier makes actors suffer. He told animal-lover John C Reilly he was going to kill a donkey, and nearly broke Bj�rk, who accused him of wanting to �destroy� actresses. Sadistic, yes, but he provokes astonishing performances
To get the right shot, Werner Herzog - and the German�s long-suffering casts and crews - have filmed on a live volcano, dragged steamships over mountains and nearly drowned in a river. Relations with actor Klaus Kinski were so strained, Herzog threatened to shoot him - and himself. He may make insane demands, but at least he puts himself in peril too
The winner: Werner Herzog

Re: Ecuadorian cookbook proposa
G�day, Gail. I hear you�re the big swinging dick, pardon my language, on the British publishing front, and I want to suggest a likely bestseller.
I�ve been staying at the Ecuador embassy for a year now. I don�t get the chance to get out much, but, staying in, I�ve become familiar with the country�s interesting cuisine. I wanna write �The Ecuadorian Epicure� with recipes, foodie lore, gastroporn snaps, the work
It�ll cover all aspects of the food I�ve been sampling every night: fried guinea pig, roast guinea pig, potato patty stuffed with cheese, cheese patty stuffed with potato, boiled guinea pig with egg, ditto without egg, yuca with cheese, corn with cheese, boiled yucca with cheesy soup, soupy guinea pig with potato, salad with parasites, ditto without (but with cheese.) Delicious
Can you let me know soon? And please don�t mention it to anyone. I wouldn�t want word of it, you know, leaking out.

Dear Ell
Q. How many days is it acceptable to go without calling your parent
A. Don�t think of calling them as a chore: they are the only people biologically-bound to put up with your whinging. Think of it as a chance to offload weaker anecdotes and make loan request
