...ship over the mountain was so close to what I had to do that I could actually play the part of Fitzcarraldo. If I don't find a real fine actor, I thought, I'm going to do it myself - it was that close. But I'm glad, and thank God on my knees that it didn't come to that. And in a way, when you look at the film or the book, it's almost like a paradigm of how to struggle in achieving something artistic. It didn't matter what you threw at me, what nature would...

...Thank you for your article about Flight 447 and the history of aviation, which, as a 17-year-old technology fan, I found remarkable [June 15].
