* SugarWiki/DevelopmentHeaven: The film is about a man trying to haul a ship over a mountain. To make it, Creator/WernerHerzog ''actually'' hauled a ship over a mountain (with help, but still). And that's not the half of it. In the real event that ''Fitzcarraldo'' is based on, that ship was originally disassembled before it was hoisted up the mountain. Herzog had his ship hauled up ''in one piece''. Herzog is a ''crazy'' man.

* IdiotPlot: [[VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory The real Carlos Fermin Fitzcarrald]] disassembled the boat into several smaller pieces before carrying them up the hill, a solution which the film's Fitzcarrald - and the director - clearly didn't act on.

* DancingBear: The film's very identity comes from its TroubledProduction, mainly the director's decision to make a real attempt to carry the steamboat up a steep hill.
