Best film ive seen in a while
My favorite movie from a loaded year.
I purchased this film this morning and watched it immediately. Men, I think this seems to be my best movie this year. It touched a lot with fantastic Koji Yakusho san no performance, solid plot, excellent music scores, and stunning cinematography. A great actor starts acting in other people’s lives but finally becomes themselves in their ripest days.
Great to watch with this film: Jim Jarmusch's "Paterson" starring Adam Driver as a bus driver and unpublished poet in Paterson (yes, William Carlos Williams!) NJ. Wenders gave Jarmusch leftover film stock to make his 30-minute short version of "Stranger Than Paradise." They've come full circle.
Really wonderful film. Just felt like a really big long hug.
The only way i could describe it is that (to reference another iconic Japanese film) its like My Neighbour Totoro in that theres no huge story arc, no sudden Hollywood attack of space monkeys with guns, just a man and his life, portrayed beautifully. And although its 2hr 4 mins. It doesnt drag at all.
The idea of Wabi-sabi
Such a beautiful film…
One word "beutiful" ❤
Truly a masterpiece, with valuable zen and stoic lessons.
Lovely for those of us who enjoy understated films. In truth though, it is wise not to romanticize aloneness. People need people (community).
perfect days by wim wenders and the song with perfect day from lou reed is a perfection in my whole life!!!!!!!!!
Preciosa pelicula, pura sensibilidad, casi un poema!
One of my favourite of Mr Wenders 🖤
Perhaps many people missed it but his connection with the tree shown through the photos and the dreams he had about it actually depicts that he sees himself in that tree, that tree almost similarly interacts with the environment around it the way he does, without saying anything just observing the beauty around it and just going about its daily routine, that is being a normal simple tree. Like the way they showed Koji’s daily routine life.
Just loved watching this beautiful film. 👌❤

True masterpiece
This masterpiece deserves more public love and also atleast best picture nomination. This and 'all of us strangers' are my movies of the year 2023. The iron.claw comes close third. I am Amazed to see these 3 movies barely crossed 20 mill box office, whereas as shit like 'anyone but you' had more than 200 Mills just cuz of boobage.
