Product Description

Following their successful collaboration on The Goalkeeper's Fear of the Penalty Kick, Wim Wenders and playwright Peter Handke reunite for WRONG MOVE - the second instalment of Wenders s acclaimed road movie trilogy (bookended by Alice and the Cities and Kings of the Road). Wilhelm (Rüdiger Vogler) embarks on a journey across Germany in order to find his voice as a writer. Introspective and seemingly without personality, he encounters a series of eccentric characters, including a beautiful and enigmatic actress (Hanna Schygulla) and a mute girl (Nastassja Kinski), who draw Wilhelm into their worlds. Loosely based on Goethe's landmark novel, Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, Wim Wenders once again shows his mastery over the road movie genre and creates a brilliant character study of one man's alienation from the world around him.

Review

one of Wenders s most beautifully made projects...ravishing...a real film-maker --The Guardian

Tantalising --Time Out

36:T558,The story: Wilhelm lives in Gluckstad (NW Germany, on the Elbe) with his mother but is dissatisfied. His mother decides to sell their apartmnt, and gives him some money and a train ticket to Bonn. On the way to Bonn he meets several people who he travels further with - an old man with nosebleeds and his young dumb companion; a famous actress; a hopeful poet. On the road they meet scenes from other peoples lives; some they meet and leave, others they take part in, briefly. Wilhelm craves to be a writer but finds it difficult to observe, or have pity...My opinion: unlike Alice im den Stadten (Alice in the cities) and Im Lauf der Zeit (Kings of the Road), in colour; but much more sombre... as usual with beautiful long shots from Wenders favourite cameraman, Robby Muller, and some wistful music at
