movies like poetry

This movie cannot be viewed as a drama. As I said to a friend yesterday, Wolf's novels are more like prose or poetry, not plot at all. Wenders' films are picture/image poems, much like Rilke's poems, in paragraphs, monologues, and fragments. Actually, I don't really like the ending of the movie, that monologue is okay, but the ending is a bit regrettable. I love the monologue of the guy who died by the bridge. . . That scene seems to have appeared in the dream many times. . . The repetition of dreams. And for the first time in color. . . And the director's portrait of the supporting role. . . Seems like visual poetry.

    Under the sky of Berlin, all beings, from the perspective of angels, spy into the hearts of the characters. Black and white tones, poetic language, flashing the old tower-like aura. Everyone's thoughts are intertwined, confused and hazy, and the national pain can't be seen along the Berlin Wall. A special film, a flow of emotions.

    These are two angels, one from East Berlin and one from West Berlin; one falls into the mortal world, and the other observes in black and white; listening to others' hearts, like the messengers of history. In fact, to put it plainly, it is a movie that tells you, hey, be yourself... well, I shouldn't pretend, it's really a boring movie, it took two days to watch it, buttocks are on pins and needles

    Damiel: Like those refugees recently.

    Cassiel: And today on the Lilienthaler Chaussee, a man slowed down and looked over his shoulder into space. And a man who wanted to end it all today put a different collector's stamp on each farewell letter.
