Filmmakers tell actors to adjust their body language, and the famous presence of the actor is his or her body language. That is what makes them special and a movie star. An actor's capital is his body.

More quotes by Wim Wenders
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
I can't do a million things anymore like I could when I was younger.
Wim Wenders
But I think that the spirit of protectionism would be the grave of European cinema. You cannot protect something by building a fence around it and thinking that this will help it survive.
Wim Wenders
Filmmaking is really connected to life and all of the expressions that different arts found to allow access to life. Filmmaking touches on all of it.
Wim Wenders
Before you say cut, wait 5 seconds
Wim Wenders
It's a great lesson in modesty that you realize you're illiterate in a field that you think you're an expert in.
Wim Wenders
The world of fashion. I'm interested in the world, not in fashion! But, maybe I was too quick to put down fashion. Why not look at it without prejudice? Why not examine it like any other industry, like the movies for example?
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
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
Any film that supports the idea that things can be changed is a great film in my eyes.
Wim Wenders
Cinema is a worldwide phenomenon.
Wim Wenders
Everything is entertainment criticism is now entertainment and it seems that the French directors have woken up one day and suddenly realised that they were not backed up any more.
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
Don't worry about getting final cut, worry about making the best possible cut.
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
For us music is mainly part of the entertainment world and is often a luxury.
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
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.
Wim Wenders
In the late 1980s the amount of German films was down to four or five percent of the market, and the remaining 95 percent were American. It is now 20 to 30 percent German productions.
