  I’m not sure a movie comprised of impressions of other more charismatic performers could ever be good, but on top of that the writing here is pretty bad.

  I don't think anyone would support Israel if they had to live as a Palestinain for just one single day.

  Aguirre, the Wrath of God 1972

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 05 Sep 2022 2

  Love this movie and was finally able to see it in the theatre. Kinski has such an expressive face that captivates you whenever he’s on screen. Perfect for the doomed megalomaniac he depicts. There are a lot of darkly funny moments. Aguirre creates an empire in miniature, complete with the trappings of legal and religious legitimacy, because there is no one there to stop him in the jungle. The film ends with wide, sweeping shots of Aguirre as the lone survivor on his ruined raft, all that remains of his delusional empire.

  The audience clapped at the end and it made me cringe.
