Check out Kinski's autobiography too...to say the least, it's extremely interesting and compelling.

Err, Steve, what's the title of Kinski's bio? - gware 23:05:56 07/29/02 (1)
He was totally outrageous, and probably still is! It would be a great read. I particularly like Fitzcarraldo and Aguirre, Kinski comes into his own as a maniac who would either pull a ship over a mountain or take on a whole wild jungle continent; complete megalomaniac, a man up against all odds without the slightest doubt of his abilities or of reaching his goal; "art reflecting life" perhaps.
I've always wondered if those films ever recouped the cost of filming them, which must have been considerable.

  And apologies all round for my previous posting, if he's still "being outrageous" it's in the Other World, I didn't realise he'd died in '91....

beside the fact that he was a sex maniac, crazy, and not the best family man....he was very talented, when he just did not need cash...His love / hate, relation to Herzog, is worth the money...
