MOVIE PREMIERE: Werner Herzog always was an idiosyncratic filmmaker, whether making dramatic movies or documentaries. But the older he gets, the more persistent he is at following his own passions – and his films keep getting even more fascinating as a result. No one else could have done as poetic a documentary about ancient cave paintings. And today, his newly released Apple TV+ documentary examines an even more ancient art form of sorts: celestial skywriting. Fireball: Visitors from Darker Worlds is Herzog’s takes on meteors, and their relationship to our planet’s history, art and folklore. Hey – I’ll be happy if he reminds me of the differences between meteors, meteoroids, and meteorites.

Indian tribal paintings possess an inimitable sensitivity, as tribal folks possess a passionate awareness, massively varying from the urbanised population. India presents before the world perhaps as sunny a field as any solitary country in the world pregnant with a perfect specimen of all the minute varieties of Oriental life; of Oriental scenery, Oriental nations and Oriental manners, and it is open to the globe to explore these peculiarities to the last degree while enjoying perfectly European security. And tribal paintings cater to such Orientalism, inexhaustible charisma of the "others"; a perfect expression of their life redrawing their passion and mystery.
