1.21 New York, Amsterdam, Wuppertal, Ruhr area in the seventies. Taxi, plane, light rail, train, ship. Maps, newspapers, notepads, police stations. Roads, music, conversations, what you see along the way. The image and reality of "listening" through the protagonist's mouth. Everything is Wendersian, whirling, searching, nostalgic poetry. (ps The background music in Eminem's restaurant is actually a Chinese pop...

CC restoration, the clouds of the Empire State Building in New York, the missing mother in Amsterdam, the upside-down train in Wuppertal, the dilapidated hotel in an unfamiliar city, the city roaming, slowly recovering memory, children and adults quietly guess the...

This one is so cute. Traveling alone is like a light-heavy feeling of smoothness, and like the male protagonist, the temperament is very comfortable. "Talking to oneself is more like listening than talking", "Why photos can't always record the reality I see", "You take pictures only to record the evidence of your own existence, but you can't go on like this". The male protagonist's name is Winter, and the hidden title is Winterreise. (Want to go to...

"What did you dream about?" said to himself, more like listening than talking. Writers are confused when they shoot first and then write, just like a director who writes first and then shoots, there are always errors in the expression after changing the medium. The lost way back, the city makes people lose their sense of time; winter meets Alice, two disabled people rely on each other to fulfill each other. The reflection of the photo makes their faces overlap, which is my favorite moment. The...

The film itself presents the aesthetic potential of pure travel, naturally rejecting any formalist definition, that is, neither emptiness nor purpose, wandering bit by bit is delineated by the road to find the passing reality, which is a wonderful symbolism, until the end of the will. The Yiyi is far away, so...

the meaning of the landscape
This is a story about finding a home with an abandoned girl.
But as a road movie, the film's focus seems to be on the landscape that the characters experience.
Do we forget who we are when we live in the roads, streets, and skyscrapers that have been infinitely replicated by modern capitalism?...

Wandering aspirin, basking in Wenders' unhappiness
In late autumn, a particularly cool tone emerges from the window, as if all the colors are withering, and the city gradually turns gray, becoming more and more hidden in the mist and autumn wind. A sensitive and fragile creature like human beings can most dilute the joy of this scene, let the...

Philip 'Phil' Winter: Talking to yourself... Actually, it's more like listening than talking.

Publisher: You've been on the road for four weeks now and all you've got is a bunch of pictures. You were supposed to write something. I could have gotten pictures somewhere else. You were supposed to write about the American landscape. I've already gotten three telexes from the publisher in Munich and I look like an idiot. So what do I do now?
Philip 'Phil' Winter: I'm not done yet. That's all.
