FlTZCARRALDO (DVD)
A fiIm by Werner Herzog
One of Werner Herzog's most acclaimed and audacious fiIms, FitzcarraIdo telIs the incredibIe story of Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald (played by Herzog regular KIaus Kinski), an opera-loving fortune hunter who dreams of bringing opera (specificaIly Caruso) to a remote trading post on the heart of the Peruvian jungle.
With the help of the beautiful Madam Molly (CIaudia Cardinale), his loyal crew, and an indigenous tribe, FitzcarraIdo journeys up the rivers of the Amazon hauIing his steamship, the Molly Aida, over a mountain in order to access the riches of hitherto unexpIoited rubber territory.
Evocative of the troubled circumstances of its own production, FitzcarraIdo is both a confessional self-portrait of Herzog the adventuring artist, and a grandiose paean to those who dare to Iive out their wiIdest dreams.
