It added a new dimension into my life, my personality, the way I see people and the world, the other world, time, existence, spirit, nature, everything. Thank you.
Walking round Berlin recently, thinking of the film. Saw it when first released, loved it. When i left the cinema in Sydney Australia I walked through Sydneys Hyde Park back to my place in darlinghurst. It was a beautiful night and my head was in the clouds with the angels. I turned the corner and literally bumped into two proper skinheads who started shoving me about and hitting me. I grabbed one desperately and we both fell down a long flight of sandstone stairs... when we got to the bottom I was sore, but he was unconscious - he must have hit his head on a step. The other one was yelling at me, and crying about something. And then he chased me for ages until we were eventually walking, first with him yelling insults. And then just walking silently. I was terrified but also getting annoyed. Eventually I stopped and turned around and said - "why don't you go back and look after your friend?" He sort of stopped and looked at me and i remember trying to kind of channel Bruno Gantz, the care, the openness, the gentleness. And the guy just walked off. I always remember the film and that night.
This movie changed me in ways that I still don't understand. It is still my all time favorite movie, yet every time I watch it I can find new meanings - and they are all positive, hopeful.
Ich wünschte ich könnte
den Film noch einmal zum
allerersten Mal sehen, so wie
vor über dreißig Jahren .
It’s currently (Aug 2022) screening at Lichtblick Kino in Prenzlauerberg, Berlin (original audio, English subtitles). It’s a great experience to watch it in a tiny, very Berliner cinema. It’s not only about Berlin, but it’s a lot about Berlin - that Berlin.
The film that made me understand what film could be...the first step toward my film degree...
hey can i ask you, what KIND of film degree are you pursuing? in person or online? what university? how is your pursuit honing your craft? i'm considering it as well. thanks in advance.
I’ve never seen something so powerful.
A cinematic masterpiece about my favourite city, Berlin ❤
This is wonderful. A fabulous addition to my understanding of one of my favourite films. Thank you
A masterpiece 🌟
This movie brought me back to Berlin. Thank you, companero!
The American movie "City Of Angels" (1998) was created from this movie with actor Nicolas Cage. "City Of Angels", is almost the same plot but it is tweaked to be different. In this 1987 German film, the woman who the love interest is a Trapeze artist, and in the 1998 American film, you have Meg Ryan as a Heart surgeon. I didn't realize this until I watched this documentary. Great film, great video! Thanks!♥
i just went to a screening of the film on Tuesday Night at the Academy Cinema in Auckland and i can't stop thinking about it. I have been writing about it in a writing project. Dreaming about it the last two nights
It might be weird to do this in a comment section, but I send you a hug. God bless you .
I love this film. It always moves me. I would like to find Faraway, So Close, but it seems impossible to find!
You can find it on some free streaming sites, just google the title + streaming free. I'd send you a link but YT won't let me.
I keep hoping that Criterion will release it as a companion and it never happens. I hold onto my old dvd in the meanwhile.
One of the greatest works of art in film I have ever seen… thank you, thank you, thank you.
The thoughts and dialogue gave the film a profound humanity.
I have been to Germany 🇩🇪 and Berlin Wim Wender is one of the most intelligent film 🎬 directors and I saw the film 📹 in the Spring of 1988 in New York almost a year after I came back from Europe it very good experience
What a beautiful movie... thank you very much for one of the most beautiful and touching movie i've ever saw!
Thank you for posting this. Great contribution and ref. for those who love this film, cinema & Angels.
A panoply of soothing, rich, textured voices.
how apt. The voices are gentle both in this and the film.
So glad to have found this, to be able to see how this sublime movie came together, genius.
Curt Bois nearly broke my heart in this movie.
Thank you so much for uploading this.
this is why I came to Germany
The grandmother “oversight” is a perfect red herring for the reveal at the end.
I had actually thought of it, and I justified it to myself by thinking maybe he got incarnated into someone's body. But now that I think of it, that would have made Peter Falk a demon, possessing another's body :)
Profound; very moving.
Thank you for posting this
Love this movie…
Thank you for this.
I taught our dog (a red setter) Want to go for a walk in German, Wilst du einen spazeergang machen? And I heard it again from Peter Falk-so as zeergang and it reminded me.
This movie really was one of the founders of the cinema. Unlike Spider-Man witch didn’t do anything. This is a cinema legend.
Too bad Solveig Dommartin wasn't in this documentary, after the mid 90s she seems to have vanished. I would really like to know what she was doing in the last ten years of her life.
Top film .❤
No mention of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds?
What is the poetry book that inspired Wim with the Angel? Please
The German poet Rilke - try poems like The Angel or The Temptation from his Neue Gedichte, but start with Das Studenbuch (The Book of Hours) - Wenders says himself that nothing more beautiful has been written in German
Have only seen the Amy Ryan, Nick Cage version which was beautiful but hated her death.
This documentary is wonderfully done, making mecwantbto find the film and see it. Always loved Peter Faulk even before Columbo. The actor playing the main angel have seen in several films.
He’s wonderful every time you see him, Bruno Ganz (Damiel the Angel)is also in a favorite “The American Friend”
💗✨
Huh?
I didn't see Marion!
Solveig Dommartin (Marion) died young. She may have already passed when this documentary was made.
Which Wenders’ film had a barge with either freedom fighters or terrorists on it with neon signs that said Ukraine everywhere..and I think U2, was playing until the end of the world? Was it a short at the end or beginning of the screening I saw?
Faraway, So Close! I think.
ruclips.net/video/RPWQSk93dDs/видео.html this is the final scene from "Faraway, So Close!", it might match your description
@@JourneyToTheCenterOfTheCinema Yes I found this and realized the scene to which I am referring might’ve been somewhere in the middle because it may have momentarily reverted to color? Specifically I wanted to see these neon signs that said: Ukraina
satan and the fallen angels (demons)
The remake was terrible and sacrilegous.
Right. I don't understand how he allowed it to happen. It assumes there are people out there who could never get it, which is insulting.
Agree with you 100 percent! "Sacrilegious" is just the right word.
