Klaus Kinski, who plays Fitzcarraldo, is at the top of his game in this role, but the really unique thing about this movie is how you can feel that Herzog literally is Fitzcarraldo, as it is painfully obvious that Herzog was more concerned with putting his vision on screen, much like Fitzcarraldo hi....

In similar ways, the story of the making of this film is intertwined with the story in the film.
