Wings Of Desire--Belongs To Wenders' Unique Film
Standing on a concrete river bank in Berlin, they recall that it took a long time before the primeval river found its bed. They remember the melting of the glaciers. They are a reflection of the solitude of God, who created everything and then had no one to witness what he had done; the role of the angels is to see.
The film evokes a mood of reverie,...

If Paris and Texas are still writing a love story about forgetting or staying together in the world, then Wings of Desire hopes to look at the mundane world with a more detached vision.
Therefore, when these are not angels in our mortal imagination, listening to human life in their own way, the human world in their eyes is a minimalist place, only black and white, no color, and emotions seem to be indifferent.
When angels feel pity, temptation, and love for mortal girls, the world of...

The world has color because of you
IMDB rating: 8.0
This is the most unpopular film among these 20 films. It is an old German film about two angels (men) guarding the city of Berlin. One of the angels fell in love with a mortal woman, so he was willing to The story of becoming a mortal. The dullness and obscurity of this film are not ordinary. It really takes a little patience to watch it, and it may not be your favorite movie after watching it, and you may lose these 2 hours. The theme of this film, I think, is life,...

A very politically correct, very postmodern film
Some awards have obvious political tendencies. For example, the Nobel Prize for Literature has always been awarded to many writers who opposed power and were forced to leave their country. The Cannes Awards have not been criticized much in this regard, but this 50th award was awarded to Wenders' "Under the Berlin Sky", I think there are political considerations.
It's a politically correct film that criticizes the greed of adults by highlighting the innocence and gratification of...

Wim Wenders' films, as always, fueled my enthusiasm at the height of my despair. Black and white, two angels walking around, Berlin constantly shows its ecology, a personal monologue, without coherence. For more than an hour, I followed the two angels in black coats. I kept my spirits up, and for most of the time, I still started to feel a little "unintelligible".
However, when I was about to despair, a colorful picture appeared. The circus woman gave one of the angels the courage to be a...

I saw the news of Bruno Ganz's death on Time.com, so I decided to watch the movie "Under the Berlin Sky", which I paid attention to many years ago, and had the urge to watch a movie not long ago, but I didn't watch it in the end. —— I didn’t notice it before, but now I found out that the two “grandpas” in “Heidi and Grandpa” and “The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly” are all played by him. The Destruction of the Empire", and the poetic film "Eternity and One Day", although the story is forgotten, the...

It turns out that the inspiration for "City of Angels" came from this, but the foreshadowing of the first 1.5 hours is really unbearable, and I want to close it and delete it. If there is no first 1.5 hours, and I haven't seen Angels City, maybe give it 5 points. The late 80s was an amazing time, there were so many great movies coming out all over the...

Full of the post-war intellectuals' sympathy and compassion, the moving gentle and soothing, the angel who fell from the light gray dream to the colorful mortal world, maybe at the moment of recovery from the despair and depression, there is an elegant and slightly fat angel. To save you, it turns out that the angel will listen to you when you are thinking, and sometimes he will come over to listen if he doesn't understand it. It turns out that the angel also likes Nick Cave. Please remember to...

I've searched for this piece countless times, and found it. The guardian angel, in fact, is like the one that girls often say, the words of giving up heaven for the one you love or something, this is love~ I can see it...

My world is colored because of you. For you I am willing to fall into the mortal world as an angel with broken wings. It's actually a non-Hollywood version of the City of Angels. WimWenders is like a movie made by Ingmar Bergman that is high-end and confusing. German cinema may indeed lack artistry. It feels boring with or without...
Homer, the aged poet: [inner voice] The world seems to be sinking into dusk, but I tell my tales, as in the beginning, in my sing-song voice, which sustains me.
Homer, the aged poet: [inner voice] No more roaming back and forth through the centuries as in the past. Now I can only think from one day to the next. My heroes are no longer warriors and kings, but things of peace, one just as good as the next. The drying onions as good as the tree trunk that grows in the marsh. But no one has thus far succeeded in singing an epic of peace.
Homer, the aged poet: [inner voice - as he walks around a wasteland by the Berlin Wall] I can't find Potsdamer Platz. Here? This can't be it. Potsdamer Platz is where the Café Josti used to be. In the afternoon I'd go there to chat and have a coffee and watch the crowd after I'd had my cigar at Löhse and Wolff, a famous tobacconist, right around here. So this can't be Potsdamer Platz.
