	Wings
		Usually, when there are airplane scenes in a movie, there is a long shot of flying planes, and then close-ups shot on the ground against the sky (or later, using a projected background).
		Wings had a $2 million budget in excess of the military investment and used thousands of soldiers, almost all the existing army pursuit aircraft, and the top rank of military fliers; several of the pilots in Wings became generals in World War II.
		Although ostensibly a movie glorifying war and the military, Wings is a reminder at how many victories were won by obedient soldiers marching to certain death towards a barrage of enemy gunfire.

	‘Wings of Desire’ (PG-13)
		Seen through the (fl-and-white) lens of veteran French cinematographer Henri Alekan and reflected in the gentle eyes of Wenders' star angel Bruno Ganz, "Wings" is a soaring vision that appeals to the senses and the spirit.
		An intuitively composed fable of earthbound angels in the city of Berlin, "Wings" is closer to poetry and music than linear storytelling anyway: Your senses simply absorb the sounds and images -- although "Wings" is a healthy enough meal for the brain as well.
		"Wings," like most Heaven-and-Earth movies, ties up its resolution with romantic ribbons but, in Wenders' eyes, such a conclusion is the crowning union of life's dual opposites, the sensual and the spiritual, German's East and West -- as well as its Nazi past and occupied and uncertain present.

	Ningen no Tsubasa (Wings of a Man)
		The movie Wings of a Man depicts Shinichi Ishimaru as a hero with ideal character and many accomplishments who gave his life to defend his country.
		Wings of a Man is a movie "commemorating the 50th year of the end of the Pacific War and the realization of true peace and prosperity."
		Although this clear depiction of good and evil may give children and adults role models to follow, the movie's romantic portrayal of Shinichi and his wife, family, and friends may not allow insight to difficulties faced by some kamikaze pilots and their families.

		The movie theatre is the only place or event with alot of people in one room.
		Viggo Mortensen was terrific as was the always bankable Armin Mueller-Stahl as the "Russian Godfather." Not a big Naommi Watts fan but she was OK as the midwife who comes into possession of a diary that reveals too much of the inner workings of the Russian Mob and their ruthlessness.
		A comparison would be interesting, but, as with other comparisons (the latest James Bond movie comes to mind), it would not be entirely fair because so much has changed in 50 years that the films must be seen in different contexts.

		And frustrating as that running-in-circles may be, it is key to both the Ullmans’ suffering and the movie’s tone.
		Yes, it is a sentimental film in the sense that the filmmaker is clearly pleading with his viewers to feel for the characters.
		The beauty of Broken Wings is its unflinching willingness to examine each survivor as they pick through the rubble of their lives.

		At the end of the movie, one of these men (who are actually angels) returns to life on earth, and ceases to be a guardian angel for anybody - though he does join a circus.
		Wings of Fame is a film which mocks self-involved, pretentious movie-making and at the same time manages to make serious points about the nature of fame.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Wings of Desire \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		A terse description of "Wings of Desire" makes it sound like any of many movies about heaven and earth: An angel falls in love with a mortal woman and desires to become mortal himself so he can be with her.
		It is also a deceptively simple movie, but there's no question that you'll be thinking about it for some time to come.
		But those quibbles aside, "Wings of Desire" is uniquely wonderful, with many memorable scenes and Bruno Ganz provides the perfect gentle angel face for Wenders to hold with his camera as both Ganz and Wenders observe humanity.

	Wings (1928) Movie Review - RopeofSilicon.com
		Wings is a Paramount Pictures release directed by William A. Wellman and was released on January 15, 1928.
		Wings, the first movie to win an Academy Award for Best Picture and the only silent film to win, is still remarkably enjoyable to watch.
		The main reason to watch Wings, though, is to see the difference between an actor and a movie star.

		Wim Wenders' "Wings of Desire" rivals Jean Cocteau and Rene Clement's 1946 masterpiece "La Belle et la Bete" as one of the most magical fantasies ever committed to film.
		It was the inspiration for the American romantic comedy "City of Angels." Though "Wings of Desire" deals with romantic love and has humorous elements, it isn't a romantic comedy.
		The movie is filled with several great set pieces.

		And while "Wings of Desire" can be frustrating to watch at times, with Wenders' trademark directorial indulgences, this shortcoming is easily overlooked with the breathtaking world that he presents on the screen.
		"Wings of Desire" is probably one of Wim Wenders' most ambitious and memorable films.
		Resonating with haunting images, yet celebrating the wondrous moments found in the everyday, "Wings of Desire" is a remarkable piece of cinema that must be experienced.

		WINGS was the first film ever made that graphically captured the emotional combination of freedom and fear of flying in combat.
		The first collaborative effort between Holywood and the Air Force, Wings enjoyed the administration's support on the condition that it projects a positive image of the military, emphasizing male camaraderie and heroism.
		The main attraction for this movie is the aerial fight sequences.

	Barnes & Noble.com - DVD, Movie, Video: Wings Of Desire, Bruno Ganz, DVD, Wide Screen / Black & White
		Scripted by Wenders and German novelist Peter Handke, Wings of Desire follows two angels, Daniel (Bruno Ganz) and Cassiel (Otto Sander), as Daniel struggles with his desire to take the plunge into earthly existence, inspired by his attraction to a beautiful French trapeze artist (Solveig Dommartin).
		As he watches her, Damiel makes a decision: he wants to be human, and he wants to be with Marion, to lift her spirits and, if need be, to share her pain.
		I had the pleasure of seeing the sequel to this movie, Faraway, So Close, on Bravo more than a year ago, while I was studying German at the local college and I was smitten by the simplicity and depth of the director's work.

	Wings of Desire \| TIME Magazine - ALL-TIME 100 movies
		n movies angels are generally busy-body know-it-alls, running about rescuing humans from their vast varieties of sin and error.
		Not so in this movie, where they are poised on Munich’s rooftops, privy to every conversation, every stupid idea and intention going on below, but powerless to intervene.
		It’s a movie that might have fallen into sentimentality at any one of a dozen moments, but thanks to Peter Handke’s wryly realistic writing and Wenders’s gently controlled direction, it never does.

		Despite the fact that Only Angels Have Wings is about a group of pilots based in the fictional South American city of Barranca, the best of the action takes place in a bar, not in the sky.
		While the action scenes are reasonable for the time, the tension comes from the interaction between the people waiting on the ground, rather than the heroics in the air.

	'Broken Wings' - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
		Both foreign and familiar, "Broken Wings" is an unashamed melodrama that brings an unmistakable texture of realism to its well-drawn characters.
		"Broken Wings" is especially well cast, and, not always the case for an Israeli film, its members steer clear of overacting and shoving their emotions in the audience's face.
		And though no one in "Broken Wings" makes so much as a passing reference to the Palestinian situation, even its title implies not only a family but also a society at its wits' end.

	Movie Review: Wings \| Mountain Xpress \| mountainx.com
		Wings is primarily famous today as the first-ever Best Picture Oscar-winner, which sounds a bit more impressive than it is, since the awards for 1927-28 seem to have been pitched to give everybody something.
		Still, Wings is a good movie, if hardly the best of its year.
		True, the gay subtext between Arlen and Rogers was probably accidental (though they undeniably generate more heat together than in their scenes with Clara Bow or Jobyna Ralston), but the inclusion of an obvious lesbian couple in the aforementioned tracking shot is obviously deliberate.

	Review: Israeli Movie Broken Wings a Study in Contradictions
		In "Broken Wings," the unexpected death of a husband and father causes a crisis in the lives of surviving family members.
		Yet "Broken Wings" is also inescapably melodramatic, the kind of film where big tragedies strike and bad things happen to good people on dark and rainy nights.
		Even the title of "Broken Wings" suggests not only a damaged family but a society where things are falling apart and the center does not hold.

		Dafna and her children are still hurting from the recent death of the man of their cluttered, comfy middle-class house.
		A lot of the action in "Broken Wings" seems inevitable, right down to Maya's running away from home and more than one eye-watering reconciliation, yet this intimate, warmly made family portrait always feels true.
		"Broken Wings" is set in an autumnal September, and Bergman films the Ulmans with a lilt of spring.
