Review of Alice in the Cities (1974) by Mike M — 22 Nov 2007
Too many art films of this era now seem sunk by their own moroseness, but "Alice" never gets stuck in the same place for long: it's the work of a young man (Wenders was 29) with his eyes wide open to the world and a yen for travel.
Jurgen Klinsmann lookalike Vogler, with his shaggy locks and broad, goofy smile, is incapable of staying in a sulk for long, and Rottlander, as the girl, is a delightful, non-cute, matter-of-fact presence.
