Two part Wenders retrospective at London BFI
In at the start of the 'New German Cinema'and reinventing himself constantly ever since, Wim Wenders is the quintessential post-modern auteur, seduced (sometimes dangerously) by Hollywood, but remaining European to his very core. The BFI is hosting a major two-part Wim Wenders retrospective from 1 Jan - 29 Feb 2008. The season includes an extended run of Alice in the Cites, brand new prints of several more of his seminal road movies and the chance to hear one of the most distinctive European auteurs of the last 40 years discuss his career in person on Thu 10 Jan, when the BFI welcomes him back for the event Wim Wenders in Conversation.
