   Lessons Of Darkness is a primal, emotional film that abstracts ideas of war beyond the conventional good and bad axis, to become something utterly unto its own set of natural laws (both war and the film), and as such makes most criticism of it superfluous, even silly.

   Is 'lessons of Darkness' a true story?

   • The implication is that "Lessons of Darkness" is not a recounting of history but a grasp for some higher, ecstatic truth: namely that of oil obsessed white men repeatedly starting (and squelching) wars in foreign lands whilst locals suffer and are denied a voice. Today, of course, the West's Gulf War myths have been debunked and demythologized.

   Mar 15, 2006 · The fantastically-appropriately titled Lessons of Darkness is without question Herzog’s darkest hour. Does a less joyful piece of art exist? Works on the Holocaust spring to mind, but they can be dismissed for this film chronicles not simply man’s inhumanity to man, but man’s hostility towards the very universe he lives in.

   Review by chavel ★★★★ 2 Madness conveyed primarily visually kind of documentary, scored to the bombastic likes of Mahler, Wagner, Verdi and more. One successive shot after another of Kuwait in the Gulf War aftermath would be tedious, not unless you were in the hands of a masterful director like Werner Herzog.
