Wings of Desire is about as talky as talky films get, but one that contains so much depth, insight and meaning, it can touch virtually anyone who sees it. What sets this film apart from other similarly-themed pictures, is it's true to life filming of everyday life and the continuous overlapping of thoughts as we go from one person or setting to another. Wenders fully captures human transience and gives us a look at ourselves from an omniscient point of view.
