This is by far one of the greatest ever made. WOD has in some ways all! There's mystery, religion, evil, love, reality, surrealism, loneliness, kindness, caring, sharing, fearful and fearless, so much in one film, you can hear the silence, the intensity of the thoughts of strangers, the tired struggle of life, I hope one day if I find myself up there with Wings of Desire, I'd like to keep mine on...xxoo Jim A.
