The Descent of Wenders

[Thomas Seay]

Are you (Cian) and Yoshie presenting these reviews
as your own point of view on "Wings of Desire"?
I agree that his movies since "Wings" have been flops.
It's true that a lot of "Wings" success can be
attributed to Handke's writing, not to mention the
incredible (in my opinion) camera work.  Nonetheless I
still think the movie was great.  I dont know whether
Wenders is sexist or "arsehole" and it wouldn't change
my opinion of this movie, if he were.  It's a great
movie IMHO.
