149. Until the End of the World (1991) & Fitzcarraldo (1982)
Manage episode 441261814 series 2873533
This week, we discuss two films from two prominent New German Cinema directors.
The first is Until the End of the World (1991), an epic science fiction adventure drama directed by Wim Wenders. Set at the turn of the millennium in the shadow of a world-changing catastrophe, the film follows a man and woman, played by William Hurt and Solveig Dommartin, as they are pursued across the globe, in a plot involving a device that can record visual experiences and visualise dreams.
The second is Fitzcarraldo (1982), an epic adventure-drama written, produced and directed by Werner Herzog, and starring Klaus Kinski as would-be rubber baron Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald, an Irishman known in Peru as Fitzcarraldo, who is determined to transport a steamship over the Andes mountains to access a rich rubber territory in the Amazon basin.
