Overview

Wim Wenders' body of work is among the most formidable in modern cinema: Paris, Texas, Wings of Desire, The Million Dollar Hotel and The Buena Vista Social Club, to name just a few. And Wenders writes about cinema as passionately as he produces it. This volume collects three previously published books of Wenders' essays: Emotion Pictures, The Logic of Images and The Act of Seeing. He discusses his development as a film-maker from the moment he picked up a camera aged 12, and offers a broad analysis of his guiding passions - rock'n'roll, avent-garde cinema, questions of German identity, and the influence of America.
