Wrong Move

Germany   Wim Wenders  Hanna Schygulla, Natassia Kinski

A 70's effort that is almost a parody of bleak, European existential angst. None of the relationships here bore any resemblance to those in real life. There were several scenes that were so incongruous I laughed aloud. 

There was one spectacular dolly shot up a winding mountain road that alone made the film worth watching. 

Unengaging, wreathed in irony, disillusionment, alienation, abstract intellectualism. Capped by suicide.

What's not to like?
