Aguirre, The Wrath of God - How Many Monkeys?

Film Flam - A podcast by OverlyCritical

Categories:

In this episode of Film Flam, Colin and Sean dig into another old, strange movie, and end up feeling strange, again. Werner Herzog’s "Aguirre, The Wrath of God" turns all our hopes of victory and epic accomplishment to a fine dust that Herzog equates to the whole human project. But there are so many lessons to learn spanning gold, unsalted fish, and opportunistic monkeys. Selected questions: * Is man good or bad? * Who is Kinski and why is he so mad? * Should we really be this gung-ho about a German with a cult following? *Will Aguirre's pure bloodline stand the test of time? Find out the answers to these and all your other questions in this episode of Film Flam. Email abandoned dreams (or ships) to: [email protected]
