520 One of the most revered filmmakers of our time, Werner
Herzog wrote this diary during the making of Fitzcarraldo,
the lavish 1982 film that tells the story of a would-be
rubber baron who pulls a steamship over a hill in the
Amazon jungle in order to access a rich rubber territory.
Later, Herzog spoke of his difficulties when making the
film, including casting problems, reshoots, language
barriers, epic clashes with the star, and the logistics of
moving a 320-ton steamship over a hill without the use of
special effects. Hailed by critics around the globe, the
film went on to win Herzog the 1982 Outstanding Director
Prize at Cannes. Herzog's diary is a glimpse into the mind
of a genius during the making of one of his greatest
achievements.--From publisher description.
