MY BEST FIEND includes interviews of Herzog, Eva Mattes (Woyzeck) and Claudia Cardinale (Fitzcarraldo) as well as footage shot during the filming of AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD. Enjoy also a rare footage of Mick Jagger performance in FITZCARRALDO before Jason Robards's illness stopped the production.
Was Klaus Kinski a psychotic or a genius ? The movie doesn't answer this question but is a superb homage to a friendship that produced numerous cinematographic masterpieces.
Highly recommended.
