Leave it to Wim Wenders to make the most beautifully shot and scored, but boring and unintentionally campy, suspense love story you’ve ever seen.
Finn (played by Campino, the Pierce Brosnan-looking singer for “Toten Hosen”) is a hotshot German artsy photographer who slums by doing fancy commercial ads against bizarre backgrounds.
Able only to sleep for brief naps, Finn is hunted by an invisible-arrow-shooting specter (Dennis Hopper) that follows Finn from Düsseldorf to
Palermo where he meets Flavia (Giovanna Mezzogiorno), a lovely art restoration specialist working on the famous death related fresco “Il Trionfo della Morte.”
There would have been more boos at the film’s Cannes premiere, but many in the audience were asleep.
Not Rated. 124 mins.
