For years all I seemed to be doing was lobbying politicians and others to persuade them that European culture needed movies, and that we had to protect it.

I'm getting a little bored by the juxtaposition of American and other cinema. I no longer think this division is as true as it might have been in the 1980s, or the early part of the 90s.

I think sometimes you have to just imagine something that looks pretty impossible. By imagining something that is impossible, automatically you wish you could make it possible.
Wim Wenders

Filmmakers and critics wrote about each other and sometimes very harshly. This no longer exists.
Wim Wenders
Image
The most important question for me when I begin working on a film is where to start. For a book, what makes you convinced there is a story that is worthwhile?
Wim Wenders
Image
It's almost scary how stylish things can look if you take the color out - how much more you see the essence of things and how much more something can appear elegant.
Wim Wenders
Image
Photographs put time into such a perspective. They humble us and our selfish memories.
Wim Wenders

I can't do a million things anymore like I could when I was younger.

Entertainment today constantly emphasises the message that things are wonderful the way they are. But there is another kind of cinema, which says that change is possible and necessary and it's up to you.

Ibrahim tells his story without a grain of complaint, and this was true for all of the band members. This is very much part of the Cuban spirit and soul.

Of course the French are making very credible movies and it is still one of the greatest nations in terms of world cinema but the real problem is the decay in film criticism.

For us music is mainly part of the entertainment world and is often a luxury.
