Fitzcarraldo (1982)
10/10
definitely a masterpiece
6 October 2011
I was not even born and Fitzcarraldo already existed. I watched it some years ago and it actually took me time to realize this film was older than me then!

It's not only a matter of time or age here, Fitzcarraldo is a movie you must watch... the simple truth. It's a bit long though but the story that Hertzog tells here is of a man, an actual man who dreams and who creates his own dreams to also make them come through.

Imagination, engineering, hands of collaboration, excellent music and great visionary sense of humor make of Fitzcarraldo a film you'd never fail to remember.

Every time somebody gives me to understand that something is just impossible to happen or to make it work I just think of Fitzcarraldo and I happen to see those people as just... basic people, not able to distinguish between Fitzcarraldo and, just plain reality.

Quite an amazing and superb film.
