The sky over Wenders's war-scarred Berlin is full of gentle angels wearing trench coats who listen to the tortured thoughts of mortals and try to comfort them. One wishes to become mortal after falling in love with a beautiful trapeze artist. Peter Falk, as himself, assists in the transformation by explaining the simple joys of a human experience, such as the sublime combination of coffee and cigarettes. The result is a film that is simultaneously sentimental and cerebral.

    This is surely the most beautiful, magic

    I could sense the angels, around the people, visible for just a few and unnoticed by the rest. I loved the use of different languages, it takes away the gap between american/german/dutch (myself). Magic and so believable, wise and yet light and so mu...ch humanity with a heavenly breeze from the angels. Read more Less

    And with commentary by Wenders and Falk?! Worth its weight in gold.
