    Character Evaluation

    Klaus Kinski Violent

    Klaus Kinski is known for his strong performances and violent personality on the screen, and has performed more than 180 films. His international reputation comes from the five films he collaborated with Werner Herzog , which are considered masterpieces of European cinema. But their partnership is full of violent disputes. In the process of Making Movies , some disputes were recorded or recorded, and even in a serious dispute, they threatened each other to kill each other. This obsessive love-hate relationship enabled them to reach the pinnacle of creation, but it also caused their split in 1987. Werner Herzog later published a review of cooperation with Kinsky in the United States, My Best Fried (1999).

    Klaus Kinski pursues perfection

    Kinsky pursues perfection in his work, but he always has disputes with his collaborators and directors. Kinsky was a neighbor of Warner Werner Herzog when he was a child. Werner Herzog recalled that Kinsky was angry next door and even destroyed everything in the room. A notorious incident was that Kinsky thought that the audience did not appreciate him enough, and threw the candlestick from the stage toward the auditorium, almost burning the theater. The other is: When filming "Scourge", because the crew couldn't stand the noise of playing cards in the cabin, they fired three shots at the cabin, shooting off the first knuckle of an extra. During the filming of " Fitcarraldo ", even the natives who performed on the spot couldn't stand Klaus Kinski's temper and suggested to Warner Werner Herzog that they should kill Klaus Kinski.

    Klaus Kinski crazy

    Kinsky is often referred to as a crazy genius, and Werner Herzog calls him an "extreme egoist." His behavior may come from a German theater director who was working in his early years. Some directors yelled or verbally abused during the rehearsal. For example, Karl Paryla believes that this method is to force his actors to a nervous breakdown, so that they can perform better. Fritz Kortner (Kinsky mentions this person in his autobiography) is also known for his harshness and cruelty during rehearsals.
    He can speak fluent English, German, Italian and French. Coupled with his strong performance on the screen, he always has the means to get some movie roles. Although most of the finished products are considered rubbish by Kinsky (Schrott). Steven Spielberg wanted him to play the role of a Nazi villain in " Ark of the Ark ", but Kinsky refused and said: "As I think Steven Spielberg is the greatest director in the United States, this It's a stupid and bad script." He prefers to perform in Venom than this role because the price is more beautiful. He once said, "So I betrayed myself at the highest price, just like a prostitute."

      The cold that can't be defrosted

      The winter scenes are beautifully shot, especially the dumb horse riding in the forest. The exterior scenes are all taken from the Alps where summer is located, although I haven't experienced winter there yet. The genre of the film also imitates Sergi Leoni, but it has an irony to the heroes of the...

      Feelings of Watching "The Great Silence"

      The world is inhumane and everything is a dog! God will also be attached to those at the bottom of society who are struggling to survive. They have no reason not to be treated well, because their human nature is not lost!

      The characters in Italian westerns usually do not distinguish between "good...
