Film is forever.
Leave it to those whacky Germans to make a movie about Spanish conquistadors, lost in the jungles of Central America, circa 1561. As Don Lupe de Aguirre, Klaus grimaces, broods, snarls, stares at faraway objects and sometimes squints. After shooting the leader of the expedition, he convinces the other noblemen to mutiny with him so that they may have the wealth they seek, instead of giving it to the King and Queen of Spain. He declares himself ruler of the new lands in which they roam. K2 doesn't have much dialogue, though some of his lines are incredible.
