Not my desire

 

Wings of Desire (1987)


Directed by Wim Wenders this film stars Bruno Ganz, Solveig Dommartin, Otto Sander, Curt Bois and Peter Falk. An angel watching over humans in Berlin desires to become human himself.


If you are not in the mood for a slow moving art house film then you might struggle to get through this film, it nearly sent me to sleep. Thematically there is a fair amount going on here but I really could have done with half an hour being knocked off the run time. I can see while this film is so highly lauded, it is just not for me.


4/5
