My brother and I, both great admirers of Wenders' "Perfect Days" and "Paris, Texas", were recently talking about how much we wanted to watch "Until the End of the World". This article inspired me to make the time and watch it this morning/afternoon and I was completely bowled over. I don't remember the last time I reacted so strongly to a movie, and I'm trying to see if I can resist the urge to watch it again tonight or tomorrow, time permitting. Thanks, Sam.
OK, now I've read the whole thing and I see you give a pretty full list of the artists on the soundtrack. Makes me want to go back and listen! Thanks for the kind shout-out in the Intro too, happy to have you on board.
Ecce Sam Jennings! Here is a writer who first knocks me over with Sunday In The Park With George, then follows with love of the holy Wendere. I ritually watch Wings Of Deisire and its companion Faraway, So Close
at least once a year. The relish with which the angels taste and see of the agonizing real world of humans...
One of my Letterboxd top 4, haha. Fantastic write-up!
Thanks Griffin :) Love love love this movie

What every movie writer wants to hear! Thanks for sharing that, Isaac. And don't resist that urge!
I also loved “Perfect Days.” That final smiling-weeping-driving shot!
Great soundtrack too...

Haha! Glad my Gen-X bona fides aren't revoked.
