I saw FITZCARRALDO by herzog the other day, and it's WOw. it took 3 years shooting that movie, I have bought a dvd for 9 euros where ther's the movie and , as extra, ALL the movie commented by herzog and a producer, where he says absurde things that happened during the movie.
-the first scene : fitzcarraldo (Klaus Kinski) and Molly (Claudia Cardinale) at the opera

the playback-singer is played by a transvestite.
-the scene when the Indios are plying drums and Fitzcarraldo switches the Phonograph on with Caruso and the 2 music combine.
-the waterrapids scene: that scene was shot twice: one with the steamboat empty, the other with people inside! crazy herzog!
here in the trailer you have an "aperitf" of all the mest scenes.

by the way, herzog at the beginning instead of Kinski (his best enemy, he confesses) chose Jason Roberts and Mick jagger... then Roberts got sick and Jagger couldnt work for the movie for so long time, so Kinski was chosen. her you can see mick jagger and Jason Roberts. It would have been a completely
different movie (maybe worse and narcisistic, with jagger, I mean), But KInski is great, as always.

Herzog made some of the best curated scenes ever.
