Wings of Desire ( Himmel über Berlin, Der )

Deep and Beautifully Spiritual Film
mitchellyoung - wrote on 05/21/11

A beautiful film that uses visual imagery and symbolism to tell the story of an angel fallen from heaven. There are a lot of literary allusions, creative film-making devices, and dealings with spiritual themes. I would call it a film purely for a thinking audience, as the barebones plot and slow pace might be frustrating, but if you look deeper into the nuances of the film and take time to think about it, I think you will be more satisfied.
