YMMV / Fitzcarraldo

Go To

  • Award Snub: It was West Germany's entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Academy Awards, but did not make the shortlist of nominees.
  • Dancing Bear: The film's very identity comes from its Troubled Production, mainly the director's decision to make a real attempt to carry the steamboat up a steep hill.
  • Narm: Klaus Kinski as Fitzcarraldo atop the belltower provides a great example.
    Fitzcarraldo: I will have my opera house! I will have my opera house! I WILL HAVE MY OPERA HOUSE!!!
