Summary: Mainly for serious bufs of serious films
Comment: The book of Burden of Dreams is a third level of self-reflexivity in action. First we have Herzog's "Fitzcarraldo", then we have Blank's excellent film, then we have this book about Blank's movie. Confused yet? For those into "method" film making, it's a fascinating read, but not much more enlightening than the films themselves. We get to read journals about how hard it was for Blank's team to watch how hard it was for Werner's team. And, we learn a lot about Blank, who is a treasure as a documentatarian.

Fortunately, the stories are worth telling. It's higher minded than, say, "You'll never eat lunch in this town again".

All have cured me of my desire to visit Peruvian jungle.
