PostPWN #31: Fitzcarraldo

We're back with a third season, baby. Listen as we go slowly insane trying to describe the plot of a movie about a man going slowly insane, made by a director going slowly insane, starring an actor who was already insane. We're dragging boats up cliffs, bringing opera the the jungle. Joseph Conrad ain't got shit on me!
