    Francamente disfrutable!

    Wenders gives us his tribute to the ever-popular Ozu. There are better films about Ozu bit it's still a treat seeing Wenders analyze this amazing artist and also Japan in general. What is it about Germans being so fascinated with other cultures?
  • December 6, 2008
    Very thankful that Wenders didn't videotape a log being pushed around by water for 20 minutes.
  • September 4, 2008
    Suprisingly deep, and the long shots are meant for the viewer to try to understand Wenders' message.
