WINGS OF DESIRE:
"The sky over Wenders' war-scarred Berlin is full of
gentle,trenchcoated angels who listen to the tortured
thoughts of mortals andtry to comfort them. One,
Damiel (Bruno Ganz), wishes to become mortal after
falling in love with a beautiful trapeze artist,
Marion (SolveigDommartin). Peter Falk, as himself,
assists in the transformation by explaining the simple
joys of a human experience, such as the
sublime combination of coffee and cigarettes.
Told from the angel's point of view, the film is shot
in black and white, blossoming into color only when the
angels perceive the realities of humankind. Ultimately,
Damiel determines that he must experience humanity in
full, and breaks through in to the real world to
pursue alife with Marion.
A hugely acclaimed and multi-award winning movie
including Best Directorfor Wenders at Cannes 1987;
which was remade in 1998 into City ofAngels starring
Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan."
