EPISODE 023
Wim Wenders is a celebrated German filmmaker known for his diverse filmography and exploration of humanistic themes, often presented through wandering protagonists. Renowned for his "road" movies, Wenders' use of natural landscapes and urban settings creates a visually immersive experience that's uniquely his. In today's episode, I'm joined by Tyler Whitmore from the ReelTok podcast to discuss three of Wenders' films: Paris, Texas, Wings of Desire, and Perfect Days. These films share thematic similarities, featuring nomadic protagonists engulfed in loneliness. We'll break down each film and delve into Wenders' background with the New German Cinema Movement and the influences that have shaped his illustrious career.
