Aguirre: The Wrath of God

Opens Friday, Jun 7, 2013 Synopsis: The most famed and well-regarded collaboration between New German Cinema director Werner Herzog and his frequent leading man, Klaus Kinski, this epic historical drama was legendary for the arduousness of its on-location filming and the convincing zealous obsession employed by Kinski in playing the title role. Exhausted and near to admitting failure in its quest for riches, the 1650-51 expedition of Spanish conquistador Gonzalo Pizarro (Alejandro Repulles) bogs down in the impenetrable jungles of Peru. As a last-ditch effort to locate treasure, Pizarro orders a party to scout ahead for signs of El Dorado, the fabled seven cities of gold. In command are a trio of nobles, Pedro de Ursua (Ruy Guerra), Fernando de Guzman (Peter Berling), and Lope de Aguirre (Kinski). Traveling by river raft, the explorers are besieged by hostile natives, disease, starvation and treacherous waters. Crazed with greed and mad with power, Aguirre takes over the enterprise, slaughtering any that oppose him. Nature and Aguirre's own unquenchable thirst for glory ultimately render him insane, in charge of nothing but a raft of corpses and chattering monkeys. Aguirre, der Zorn Gottes (1973) was based on the real-life journals of a priest, Brother Gaspar de Carvajal (played in the film by Del Negro), who accompanied Pizarro on his ill-fated mission. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi Cast: Klaus Kinski, Cecilia Rivera, Ruy Guerra, Helena Rojo, Del Negro, Daniel Zacapa Movie Details Buy Tickets Movie Review

Everybody Has a Plan

Now Playing Synopsis: Unhappily married Buenos Aires doctor Agustín (Viggo Mortensen) swaps identities with his terminally ill twin Pedro (also Mortensen), and gets caught up in his sibling's shady underworld dealings after venturing back to their childhood home in the Tigre Delta. Agustín has a great job, a gorgeous home, and a beautiful wife. But when his wife voices a desire to adopt a child, Agustín begins to feel trapped in a domesticated prison of his own making. He senses an opportunity to break free, however, when his twin brother Pedro turns up unannounced, and presents him with the opportunity to return to the simple life they once knew. But there's a catch -- Pedro isn't exactly what you'd call an honest man, and the moment Agustín takes his place, he also inherits the lingering conflicts that would haunt his brother to the grave. Soon, Agustín finds himself caught in an altogether different kind of trap -- one that Pedro may have been lucky to escape the way that he did. Soledad Villamil and Daniel Fanego co-star in this thriller from first-time writer/director Ana Piterbarg. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Viggo Mortensen, Soledad Villamil, Daniel Fanego, Javier Godino, Sofía Gala Castaglione Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
