Fitzcarraldo

Fitzcarraldo Directed by: Werner Herzog Year: 1982 Language: English, Spanish, German Subtitles: English Runtime: CD1: 01:18:24 CD2: 01:12:24 Video Codec: DivX 5.0 Video Bitrate: CD1: 997 kb/s CD2: 1094 kb/s Resolution: 640x352 (1.82:1) [=20:11] FPS: 25.000 Audio: MP3 126 kb/s (63/ch, stereo) VBR LAME3.93 Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald (Klaus Kinski), known as Fitzcarraldo to the native Peruvians, is an avid opera lover and rubber baron who dreams of building an opera house in the Peruvian jungle. To accomplish this, he plans to reach an isolated patch of rubber trees and make his fortune. But these trees are not directly accessible by river because of dangerous rapids, so Fitzcarraldo runs his ship as close as possible via an alternate river and then enlists the aid of the native Peruvians to drag his ship over a mountain to the desired area. However, the natives seem to have their own agenda in so mysteriously acceding to Fitzcarraldo's wishes. The results manage to both mock and affirm the dreams of determined figures like Fitzcarraldo, making absurdity out of the stuff of human endeavor without negating the beauty of that effort. There is hardly a more awe-inspiring or arresting image than that of Fitzcarraldo's ship pulling itself up the mountain with cables and pulleys, or of the ship resting in mid-ascent as seen through the thick morning fog of the jungle. The tortured production history of Werner Herzog's Fitzcarraldo (ably recorded in Les Blank's documentary Burden of Dreams) tends to take the spotlight away from this deeply mesmerizing film. And that's unfortunate, because the film itself is even more fascinating than the trials and tribulations, amazing though they might be, that led to its being made. Part of the problem is the film's deliberate, some might say ponderous, pace, which invites the viewer to experience the slow immersion into the jungle that Fitzcarraldo and company experience. Herzog did something similar in Aguirre, the Wrath of God, sometimes aiming his camera at the river rapids for extended periods of time, with hypnotic results. This could never happen in a Hollywood film, and it should be treasured. Klaus Kinski is god, and this is a movie extraordinaire! :) *********************************************************************************** www.freakyflicks.tk SEED AS LEAST AS MUCH AS YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED...PLEASE!

Bluesoul (2006-01-24)

well, it´s here:

Dr Zorn (2006-04-27)

I'm using VLC. I can hear the badly dubbed Spanish audio track, and the badly dubbed English audio track, but no German. There is no option for the German. What's up?

Bluesoul (2006-05-09)

Fitzcarraldo was originally filmed in English and then dubbed in to German. The reason it was originally made in English was that this was the most common language between the cast & crew members.

Luckz (2006-05-27)

He was asking why the Spanish and English audio track are present while the German one is not, Bluesoul.

Bluesoul (2006-07-21)

Because there is NO german audio track!! How many times do i have to repeat myself, no wonder i stopped UL here, just a bunch of....

tony_olsson (2006-07-28)

Talade språk: Engelska, Tyska, Spanska

Bluesoul (2006-08-09)

NO, Talade språk only Engleska and Spanska, PRIMARY and SECONDARY audio. No german. Its a dual audio dvdrip, the german thing is a MISTAKE....

notdondelillo (2007-01-13)

but how can you turn off the spanish audio, so you only hear the english?

Bluesoul (2007-02-18)

You simply switch between the audio streams (1 & 2), depending on what software you use for playing it. You must find the audio option in your media player you use to choose which audio will be used, that's all.

Bluesoul (2007-02-18)

For Bsplayer: rightclick, Audio option, Audio Stream, Stream 2 (for English, 1 for Spanish)
For VLC player: Audio menu, Audio Track (2 for English, 1 for Spanish) I cant explain it more simple then that...

Slakpad (2007-07-25)

If i burn it on dvd, how can i make sure only the english audio will play?

ajobeus (2007-10-30)

I´ve tried to change the spoken langauge of this film in my Windows Mediaplayer 11 (from Spanish to English) but I haven´t managed. Does anybody have good advice?
Thanks/

Don't use Windows media player, they are very limited in their capabilities.
Use a good small player like KMPlayer, it can play anything and do anything. You can DL it from here:

Don't forget to switch off the normalizer audio effect...

This is a Herzog related comment: I just uploaded "Requiem for a Dying Planet", the soundtrack to The Wild Blue Yonder & The White Diamond.

rogerpP (2008-09-26)

Many thanks, d/l now.

j0kerman (2009-04-19)

Download a program called virtualdubmod - open the first video file (click "no" to the 2 boxes that appear) - go to "streams" then "stream list" - you should see 2 audio streams - click stream 1 and then "disable" to disable the Spanish auido (or stream 2 to disable the English). Click "OK" then under File "save as" and give a new filename. Do the same for the second video file.

stinki (2009-04-22)

VLC player is also a great player that allows selecting of different audio tracks, and tends to handle videos better than media player in general.
The 2nd audio track is English, the language the movie was filmed in, but the English subtitles are really sloppy, often off.

popeye5 (2009-06-16)

Bluesoul,... Thanks for the upload, BUT You gotta help me. I want to burn this to DVD to watch on the TV. I want the English audio only. How can I get this done??? PLEASE! Step by step!
Thanks much

annalator (2009-07-02)

to Bluesoul:
the reasonn people think that there was german audio might be that in "spoken language(s)" you also have "German".

kunminger (2010-02-15)
