Werner Herzog is latest Montgomery Fellow

Contrary to popular belief, the Most Interesting Man in the World is not the Dos Equis guy. That title rightfully belongs to Werner Herzog, a man that French director Francois Truffaut once called "the most important film director alive." During a career that has spanned over 50 years, Herzog has made countless documentaries, features and shorts and has occasionally acted. In addition, he is known for eccentric endeavors such as eating his own shoe and saving Joaquin Phoenix from a car wreck.
