This is one of the only films that makes me feel like I’m in another universe. It’s still unbelievable that they made this film here on planet Earth, by human actors and human directors and human gaffers, for crying out loud. Truly a masterpiece.
my favourite film - the opening sequence when they are descending the mountain...with this ethereal music...just magical. thanks for sharing.
this movie left an indelible impression on my psyche that i carry with me still 30 years later.
I fucking love how Herzog allows every scene to just breathe, most evident by the opening. It makes a movie that's about 90 something minutes long feel like it was almost 3 hours in length and that's not a knock against it, it's one of the biggest reasons why this movie is so great. It really resembles the slow descent into madness that the crew experienced and the movie as a whole is simply mesmerizing and oozes with mystic atmosphere, that's elevated by this fantastic score. And gotta give props to Klaus Kinski because he was simply terrifying and a literal madman in it. Wonder how his version of Richard III would look like.
In my youth, I became assistant manager at a foreign film theater. The year was 1977 and had two notable events happen, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" Midnight Saturday every weekend and,,,,,,,"Aguirre, The Wrath of God". Didn't care for Rocky, but when i sat down one slow business night and watched Agirre, I was literally speechless both during and after. I watched it over and over every time it was presented, which was perhaps three... three day runs. How fortunate to have had that opportunity.
I feel "Aguirre pt I" to be the greatest music to the most astounding opening scene in film history for one of the best films in history, period. When I first saw it in 1977 at my college, USF in Tampa, I did not know what I was in store for when I went to watch a night of films which were part of the "New German Cinema" movement. I thought they may be boring and tedious reading subtitles. But Aguirre, the Wrath of God was the opposite. It made such an impression on me that I was doing everything I could to find out more about Herzog. This was during the days before VHS video recorders and cable TV. But cable did come to my town in 1982 and I got to watch and record this masterpiece. A few years later I had the good fortune to meet Herzog in person. He told me about the camera he stole from college and used it to shoot all of "Aguirre"
Phil Anselmo sent me here.
One of the few films which haunts you forever, the beginning and the end are just unforgettable, Klaus Kinski is truly exceptional in his portrayal of a mad conquistador in search of Eldorado... Werner Herzog's masterpiece !
Really great movie. I'm sure Francis Ford Coppola have seen this film too and took inspiration from it for his great movie Apocalypse Now.
This movie is depressing af. Mostly because it was a realistic representation of life back then.
This is one of the few soundtracks that really personifies a feeling of the human condition
Then we descended through the clouds
The scene where this music plays in background (descent) is one of the most amazing cinematic experiences in the hx of humankind!
Film straordinario e straordinaria l'interpretazione di Klaus Kinski perfetto nella parte. Poi la musica dei Popol Vuh... Qualcosa di incredibile!
An all timer in terms of art, Aguirre is probably the purest aesthetic achievement in terms of capturing the madness inherent in humanity. Soundtrack is just otherworldly and heightens the sense of dread and doom. Really outstanding stuff all the way around.
The death scene of Aguirre's daughter was impressive.
I remember Werner Herzog telling Fricke he wanted the sounds of people chanting in the opening of the film. I don't think he imagined how amazing the music would turn out; it seems to take on a life of its own. After I watched this film I couldn't get the music out of my mind.
In the morning, I read Mass, and then we descended through the clouds.
Those are ethereal sounds I didn't think possible for 1972. The soundtrack is like darkwave made almost 10 years before it was even a thing!
agguired taste.
