Review of Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972) by Pavandeep S — 07 Jan 2008
This film is devastating, its entire atmosphere of destruction literally wails right at us, the characters are so like us and the entire obsession with a mythological city, similar to Jodorowsky's Fando y Lis, brings about to life what reality can cost mankind, the reality of power, greed, desire and influence.
A highly layered piece of work done in an outrageous camera style with a plot as minimalist as it isincomprehensible not because of obscurity, but because the outside actions nor the actions of the characters were strongly placed out.
Definitely one of Kinski's finest.
