I'd like to see all those Wenders films again. I saw a bunch of them at Bears Place in Bloomington back in college. Wings of Desire was very beautiful. I don't remember this one much at all but it was in the summer when I saw it and 2 1/2 hours of AC was awesome.

I recognize mine is a minority opinion, but his sensibility and mine aren't simpatico. At heart he has a fascination with ponderous kitsch.

I saw this movie when it came out, at a coffeehouse in Royal Oak, MI. I remember it being kind of a slog (and the audience groaning when, two hours in, the narrator said something like — “Little did they know, the story was just beginning…”).

xp same. Definitely the breaking point in WW's career. Odd how it all unraveled from then on (apart from the unexpected joy of Lisbon Story).

The Wenders films I like best are the ones with the least kitsch - The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick and Wrong Move.
