“I admit, I literally understand nothing of this,” Werner Herzog intones inimitably midway through his investigation into the mysteries of the mind. “But I find it fascinating.” Indeed. Herzog’s left field questions tend to leave brain surgeons and neuroscientists scratching their heads: “Do fish think? Do we dance in our head? Do mice suspend disbelief? How stupid is Siri?” (Spoiler: Very stupid.) Theater of Thought will bemuse anyone looking for a coherent intellectual through-line, but will amuse the rest of us: it’s a quizzical, curious comedy about poetry and science, philosophy and quantum physics.
