The world seen by angels is black and white, while the eyes of humans (human nature) see it in color. Then the angels envy everything in the world, envy the hands of human beings that can be soiled by newspapers, and then choose to give up the identity of angels and fall into the world. After thinking about it for a few days, I still feel that this sensual and blunt, "human-friendly" design is somewhat artificial and unnatural. The most romantic is the group of angels flying over the Berlin Wall that has not been knocked down. They represent onlookers and observations, instead of the audience projecting the humanistic care and political war torture of the "suffering" Berlin city. This combination of sensibility and rationality in the film, the symbolism it establishes, and the way of mixing experimental avant-garde films with romantic love films makes me feel very contradictory and complicated. That's when I read Michael Atkinson's comparison of "angels" to "fans," and it makes sense that angels (fans) look forward to moving from a black-and-white world (cinema) to a world of color (real life). Wenders does still love American movies (road movies), both from the fact that he created the character of the American actor, to the romance of the movie at the end.
