Wim Wenders--Media Funhouse

[HunterMann]

Great interview, but when you have the rare opportunity to interview a legendary filmmaker

PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR CEL PHONE!!!

Thanks for the nice comment, Hunter. Btw, it was Mr. Wenders' phone that rang during the interview.

Always a sensitive comment from Wenders. He's fantastic! The Brazilian documentary Janela da Alma (Window of Soul) has very interesting points from this and other authors with respect to the conception of today's world: reality, films, human sensibility, and so on. I strongly recomend it.

Interesting perspective from Wim Wenders, hauntingly beautiful performance from Portugal's Madredeus. Nice!

Got in touch once with guitar singer Peter Stampfel & the Bottle caps band. Shepard was a green card drummer in his holymodalrounders band. How come Stampfel wasn't casted in that Knock thing?

For Mr. Wim's next movie it would be nice to hear some of the Red Earth Tribal Stew Rock-Mettalica-Reggae-Brazilia­n band's songs such as Zial Soul. Them cats are FM radio Numero one in Albuquerque; check out their website, lead singer Ira Wilson, ex guitar player Adrian Wall (now a sculptor) in Acoma, N.M..

Friends are mine. I wonder if Wenders will ever read this she-it of mine. U think?

Anyone alive here?

Read t'Serstevens's road novel The Sentimental Vagabond (1923) translated by Whittaker Chambers for Rinehart N.Y. editions (30's). Kerouac kind of. t'Serstevens & Cendrars would often meet in Lisboa, away from Paris. Same breed as Sam Fuller.

Hey! Wim! Who's that calling U on your cell?

RUTGER HAUER?

When is Rutger in your next moving picture?

Wim is working on a film-adaptation oftravel writer Albert t'Serstevens' (1885-1974) memoirs The Man who was Blaise Cendrars (1972), collaborating with Shepard himself a big reader of t'Serstevens.
