New Werner Herzog film, 'The Piano Tuner'

Time Out
Werner Herzog is heading to Burma for his new film, 'The Piano Tuner'
German New Waver Werner Herzog is set to return to fiction filmmaking with a Victorian-era drama called ‘The Piano Tuner’, based on a 2002 novel by Daniel Mason about a British man who is sent to a remote village in war-torn Burma to tune the piano of a daffy soldier.

Sounds like perfect material for the eccentric director, who has recently been displaying his oddball charm in front of the camera as a plane-flying priest in the recent ‘Mister Lonely’, and in US-released poker comedy ‘The Grand’, where he plays a vicious card shark who reputedly utters the line: ‘Most people drink coffee, but I think it is some sort of beverage of the cowards.’
