Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972)
In the 16th century, the ruthless and insane Don Lope de Aguirre leads a Spanish expedition in search of El Dorado.
One of those movies where not that much happens and it's more about the mood and the atmoshere. But well done.
Partially based on facts. The style of the movie influenced Apocalypse Now later on.
Some small bits with animal abuse though.
Nothing vicious or anything but still had me frowning a bit.
