amazing discovery in cinema history. my parents have that exact bowl too... it's really weird.

kuleschow was assuming that primary the composition of pictures actually creates a sense in the context. --> the importance and power of montage!! thats my opinion, but i might have got it wrong, im not that familiar with film analysis yet.

Holy CRAP! 0:13 mark is the exact glass coffin that is in one of the scenes of The Tree of Life!

@SonNuriko I actually had a very similar assignment that I had to watch it for. We needed to analyze an international film and its American remake and then compare and contrast the aesthetics, cinematic style, societal context, etc. etc.

I don't think I need to say that Bruno Ganz is a much better actor than Nicholas Cage, and Damiel is a much more sympathetic character than Seth "Plate".

@4DFilmz oh ok i watched it because i was intending to use it in my essays about how American remakes of Arthouse films totally change its aesthetics and stuff to fit its audience (to put it bluntly, simplyfing the whole context of the original film) but I was only allowed to focus on one pair to I did it on another film :)

Wow Metropolis and Nosferatu! We always refer to that in my film studies and it's embarrasing to say this but I still haven't watched the two Dx

@SonNuriko I had to watch "Wings of Desire" for my International Film class, and it was one of my favorite German films (right up there with Metropolis and Nosferatu). I loved the fact that Colombo was in it and he played himself... but he was a fallen angel. Awesome.

@4DFilmz oh yes Desire not despair Dx I even watched it before this and couldn't remember the name Dx haha although i never watched the US version -_-;;; don't usually like to watch remakes AFTER the original

[4DFilmz]

@SonNuriko "Wings of Desire" otherwise known as "Der Himmel Uber Berlin" or Heaven Over Berlin. It's the film that "City of Angels" with Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan was based on.

You know the one with all of the angels in trenchcoats and the crappy Goo Goo Dolls song "Iris" as the theme song?

Yeah. The German one was way better.

@qwer58j Look it up.

[qwer58j]

What the hell was that?

[SonNuriko]

@ozymandias1818 if im not mistaken, the man in this one is from the movie "Wings of Despair" which is a German movie of the 80's I think? Dx
