    Wenders and Angel also have some similarities. The themes of searching and wandering are all about existential anxiety about post-war cultural colonization. They are built on the cultural landscape of the homeland that has been declining. The difference is that there are more Wenders. There is a layer of ascetic melancholy, so Anzhe resorts to symbols and symbols, while Wenders is more inclined to metaphor and subconsciousness, and both naturally prefer more real, intuitive, and ambiguous long...

    Maybe every director will have his own style of "eight and a half" and Wenders has built his own "city wanderer" // of course, it's not just the gods, demons, demons and spirits in the context of oriental legends that are trapped by love // ​​divinity Often it is manifested in compassion, and this compassion is first based on a higher-dimensional detailed observation//The sentient beings in Berlin in the 1980s were painful and vivid//It is not surprising why the current Berlin is so suitable...

    The final subtitle pays tribute to Yasujiro Ozu, Truffaut, and Tarkovsky, calling them angels who landed on the mortal world, which makes the story become another meaning. The artist is the ferryman between the solitary rationality and the lively...

    Part 2000. Regardless of color or black and white, the images are always immersed in an atmosphere of loneliness and sadness, and are transformed into solemn compassion for the gentle guardianship of angels. Viewers are urged to be aware of existence and time. Therefore, the confinement of a momentary and localized consolation to Berlin's historical trauma is not the only avenue that opens up the film. The sky in Berlin is, of course, ours. I find it interesting that Angel seems to be a...

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.
