    Angels are in the world. It's been around for so long, and I think maybe it's the right thing to do. I know, at least a year ago, I absolutely couldn't watch this kind of film. He listened to everyone's inner monologue, and finally decided to come to the world. I think this turning point is simply wonderful. - But about what it is trying to convey, I don't understand. It is said that the setting of this film is more than the inner expression of the...

    Confessions of a Nostalgic Who Goes to the Country. The conception is very creative and the scheduling is excellent; however, Wenders, who returned from the United States, seems to be infected with some kind of naive and quirky emotions. The film is always a bit too straightforward, and the first half unfortunately becomes Bruno Gantz's large-scale Kurishov experiment - but it also makes the second half of the Andersen-style "faller" story the absolute finishing touch. Overall slightly less...

    Growing up is probably the process of going from an angel to falling into the mortal world, so children can see angels, adults can't. But the world of mortals is too moving. You can't see it, but you can feel it. You don't know what you're looking for, you don't know where, but you can pursue it, you can look forward to it, and you can meet it. Really, who would want to be an...

    I haven't been able to find it and finally bought the DVD. I'm glad that it didn't disappoint me. The footage of listening to my thoughts is full of restrained desolation and...

    Wandering lonely ghosts murmured to themselves in poetic dreams. Falling asleep three times and waking up miraculously colored, this dead heavy metal rock band is so refreshing. The female protagonist's body is really beautiful, and the tone is also very beautiful, a bit like "Eternity and One Day" + Kurosawa Akira's "Dream". It's so cool to see the remastered version on the big screen, I shouldn't have fallen asleep, sinned. 【Archive Restoration Film...

    A movie with a lot to dig into. Judging from the few lines at the end of the film, is it a tribute to the senior master? Are they angels scattered around the world? I saw the film's tribute to Berlin. 4.5...

    The original version of City of Angels. But this movie is so boring, and the monologue sometimes feels too artificial. I prefer the sequel. There is also the appearance of heavyweight rock stars in both films. One Nick Cave, one Lou Reed. Although Wenders has a great face, can these poor angels buy...

    8.4 10/31/2015 Revisiting at Gene Siskel and feeling every time I rewatch Wenders I feel more confused than the last. I just think that watching a movie itself is like observing other people’s lives and listening to other people’s voices. If you watch a lot of movies, you will naturally have the desire to truly feel the lives of others. Movies are essentially life, and loving movies is love...

    The first hour and a half: The thoughts of sentient beings flow in the ears of the two angels. Gray image of city, lights, river, ruins. The scars of history, the desolate canvas. Perfect. But the last half hour: hypocritical. It's like a crappy TV series, and the ending has to use the heroine's monologue to do some narcissistic preaching, all kinds of big words, big concepts and big truths... The color insertion was originally very charming, but after the angel returned to the vulgarity, he...

Wings of Desire quotes

  • Damiel: Hey, wait! You wanted to tell me more. I want to know. Everything!

    Peter Falk: You need to figure that out for yourself. That's the fun of it.

  • Marion: [inner voice] I couldn't say who I am. I don't have the slightest idea. I have no roots, no story, no country, and I like it that way. I'm here. I'm free. I can imagine anything. Everything's possible. I only have to lift my eyes and once again I become the world. Now, on this very spot, a feeling of happiness that I could keep forever.
