That the madness and genius depicted in the film were also part of the gruelling near two year shoot (see Herzog's diary of the making of the film) somehow making it even better. Quite brilliant.

The bluray also has the documentary Burden of Dreams in English.
I want to pick that up. Aguirre too, but I'm a bit put out that the German soundtrack doesn't have English subs (although the English dub is available). I'm wondering whether to hold out longer.
