YOU, FOR US ARE EVERYTHING



FAR AWAY SO CLOSE... WIM WENDERS.

what the angel says at the beginning of this extraordinary movie...

"YOU, who we love. you do not see us. you do not hear us. you imagine us in the far distance... that we are the messengers... who bring closeness ... who are distant... we are the messengers ...we bring the light into the darkness.... we are neither the light, nor the message... we are the messenger . we are nothing, nothing. You for us are everything...

Wings of Desire was one of my favorite movies when it first came out. I might be due for a WW marathon. I have not seen Faraway, So Close. I'll rent them both. I never made the connection between you and wenders but I should have. Here's a link you should like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFT-duedoV4

Lovely work as always.
