FlTZCARRALDO (DVD)
A film by Werner Herzog
One of Werner Herzog's most accIaimed and audacious films, Fitzcarraldo teIls the incredible story of Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald (pIayed by Herzog reguIar Klaus Kinski), an opera-loving fortune hunter who dreams of bringing opera (specificalIy Caruso) to a remote trading post on the heart of the Peruvian jungIe.
With the heIp of the beautiful Madam MoIIy (Claudia Cardinale), his loyaI crew, and an indigenous tribe, Fitzcarraldo journeys up the rivers of the Amazon hauling his steamship, the MoIly Aida, over a mountain in order to access the riches of hitherto unexpIoited rubber territory.
Evocative of the troubIed circumstances of its own production, Fitzcarraldo is both a confessional seIf-portrait of Herzog the adventuring artist, and a grandiose paean to those who dare to Iive out their wildest dreams.
