One of Wim Wenders' greatest masterpieces returns to the big screen at Giunti Odeon, in a splendid new 4K restored version, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of its theatrical release. The film, which won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 1984, is the work that definitively established the German director among the great auteurs of world cinema. The last film of Wenders' American period, written by Sam Shepard, is a free, tender and desperate road movie, an homage to the places of the Western, a very human reinterpretation of Hollywood genres. An aging father under a baseball cap and a toddler son cross Texas in a pickup truck, looking for a wife and mother lost years earlier. They talk about big bang theory and why she left. The man, who had locked guilt and defeat in silence, rediscovers speech and the meaning of human relationships. He rediscovers them so well that when they finally find the woman, in a kind of sex club where girls talk to customers through a glass, without seeing them, Harry Dean Stanton can break them and break our hearts by telling a story, which of course is their story. She is the Nastassja Kinski of 1984, and that's all there is to it.
