Character evaluation of Wim Wenders

Wim Wenders' films have developed a unique candid and calm style. His film language rhetoric basically excludes montage, and particularly prefers unedited movements and scenes. He does not seek to prove anything. What he pursues is a kind of film that calmly observes, waits and develops without stopping. He especially likes to show roads, cars, trains, planes and ships, so he also repeatedly describes migration, wandering and travel. Wim · Wenders, together with Fassbinder, Schl?ndorff and Herzog, is known as the "Four Heroes of German New Cinema" and is one of the representatives of the "New German Film Movement" in the 1970s (International Online Review ).

Wenders' films are deeply influenced by American movies, especially road movies. He often portrays the image of lonely wanderers and the kind of violent conflicts in American movies. Unlike emotional fluctuations, the emotions in Wenders's films are quiet and slow, but heart-wrenchingly profound. Like Antonioni, Wenders is committed to creating alienated, empty but poetic worlds on the screen. , Wenders is also an accomplished photographer, and the photos he takes have the typical German calm, serious and metaphysical characteristics (Netease Entertainment Review).
