He was especially excited about Aguirre, the Wrath of God. "Look at this crazy dude," he yelled, point at Klaus Kinski, who on the cover is wearing a Viking helmet and looks like a psychopath.

She seemed less pissed with me after my stupid outburst, but she basically just went from irritable to quiet.
