My Best Fiend (1999)

  
Format:  My Best Fiend DVD 
 
 
The fruitful but often bizarre collaboration between actor Klaus Kinski and filmmaker Werner Herzog is chronicled in this incisive documentary directed by Herzog. The actor-director tandem led to such works as "Aguirre, The Wrath of God" and "Nosferatu the Vampyre," but, as revealed here, their intense natures often clashed in violent confrontations. 100 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: German Dolby Digital Surround, English Dolby Digital Surround; Subtitles: English; theatrical trailer. In German with English subtitles/Dubbed in English.
