In conversation with... Wim Wenders, on Alice in the Cities

Director Wim Wenders talks to Professor Peter Buse about Alice in the Cities, his 1974 road movie in which a German writer leaving the USA finds himself unwittingly embarking on a road trip with an eight-year-old girl.
This interview focuses on the role that photography, and the Polaroid in particular, plays in Wenders’ work looking both at this film and his new exhibition 'Instant Stories: Wim Wenders’ Polaroids’ at The Photographers Gallery

Great movie.

Nice to see and hear that, as nice the movie is.
Maybe this conversation is too focused on Polaroid, which I feel as just one part of the movie.
For me is more sort of another lost+find characters, in a nice, easy and warm atmosphere. (just like linux directory :-)
Nevertheless, photography in the movie is just fantastic.
