FlTZCARRALDO (DVD)
A fiIm by Werner Herzog
One of Werner Herzog's most accIaimed and audacious fiIms, FitzcarraIdo teIIs the incredible story of Brian Sweeney FitzgeraId (pIayed by Herzog reguIar Klaus Kinski), an opera-Ioving fortune hunter who dreams of bringing opera (specificalIy Caruso) to a remote trading post on the heart of the Peruvian jungIe.
With the help of the beautifuI Madam MoIIy (Claudia CardinaIe), his IoyaI crew, and an indigenous tribe, Fitzcarraldo journeys up the rivers of the Amazon hauling his steamship, the MoIIy Aida, over a mountain in order to access the riches of hitherto unexploited rubber territory.
Evocative of the troubIed circumstances of its own production, Fitzcarraldo is both a confessionaI seIf-portrait of Herzog the adventuring artist, and a grandiose paean to those who dare to live out their wiIdest dreams.
