Haven't Seen Fitzcarraldo


Do you have to know about the movie "Fitzcarraldo" to enjoy this documentary? I'm interested in Werner Herzog although I still haven't seen Fitzcarraldo. Thanks.

As someone who refuses to watch trailers, previews, commercials, and other things that may spoil the integrity of the story of a film, it was unusual for me to watch Burden of Dreams prior to Fitzcarraldo, but I did.

I watched this, then Fitzcarraldo, and then this again, but spaced out over about a year. I'd say that it enriches the experience, but I suppose that could've happened if I'd watched them in the "proper" order as well.

You probably have decided by now. I'd say it doesn't matter, it will make you appreciate the movie more, but it does tell you the plot! Spoilers ;)
