I remember that even my first impression of Italian cinema was pictures by paparazzi because my mom was reading all of these trash magazines with paparazzo pictures.

If you travel a lot, if you like roaming about in order to lose yourself, you can end up in the strangest places. I think it must be a kind of built-in radar, which often takes me to places that are either peculiarly quiet or peculiar in a quiet sort of way.

Final cut is overrated. Only fools keep insisting on always having the final word. The wise swallow their pride in order to get to the best possible cut.

In books they don't have deleted scenes, like with DVDs. You could have your deleted scene in a book as well!

In fact, it is amazing how much European films - Italian, French, German and English - have recovered a certain territory of the audience in their countries over the last few years.

Whoever came up first with that saying a picture is worth a thousand words didn't understand the first thing about either one.

Maybe it's the music that enables them to function like that, to always take everything as it comes and never complain about the misery, hardship or injustice.

Film is a very, very powerful medium. It can either confirm the idea that things are wonderful the way they are, or it can reinforce the conception that things can be changed.
Wim Wenders
Image
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
Image
The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in.

Cinema is a worldwide phenomenon.
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
On the contrary a film can promote the idea of change without any political message whatsoever but in its form and language can tell people that they can change their lives and contribute to progressive changes in the world.
Wim Wenders
Image
Every photo, every 'ONCE' in time is also the beginning of a story starting 'once upon a time...' Every photo is the first frame of a movie.

Sex and violence was never really my cup of tea I was always more into sax and violins.

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

The more opinions you have, the less you see.

Any film that supports the idea that things can be changed is a great film in my eyes.
