    1. The use of colors is perfect, which is bright and full, and fits perfectly with the blurred and fatalistic style of the film. Only the color and soundtrack can give you five stars. 2. The two male protagonists are symbolized by the shades of red and gold, and then the mixture of gold and red appears next to them alternately, just like the gradually deepening bond between the two. Blood-red light bulbs and sheets, a son in a yellow raincoat, a golden glow, a clear blue sky, and a miserable green billiard room. 3. All of Wenders' favorite motifs appear, and the complex relationship between Germany and the United States is metaphorized by the connection between the two male protagonists: it starts with an impolite refusal to shake hands, and turns from an enemy in a sense to not a friend Friends, and was involved and coerced to the end by invisible forces. 4. Invited Lei, Fuller and other American writers and directors to make guest appearances. 5. Image, bondage, and confusion: The framer put the frame on his head twice, the double mirror in the three-point mirror, the American friend was lying on the pool table and kept taking a selfie with the Polaroid. 6. The two clumsy assassinations with flaws are so absurd and real, like the rush in the subway monitor and the hasty embarrassment on the train. 7. A favorite Wenders, with both European and American flavors. (9.5/10)
