Review of Wings of Desire (1987) by Jeffrey B — 27 Oct 2018
The Wings of Desire does not fit your image of what an angel is suppose to look like in your imagination. Damiel is a majestic angel that is one of the main characters of the movie. He is first seen looking over the city of Berlin in a black trench coat with a mullet.
First seeing him with wings coming out of his back is shocking because angels portrayed in movies do not usual look like this. Damiel is looking down at this girl who is looking right back at him. No one else sees this angel besides this little girl in the street.
It tells you something at the beginning of the movie of how a young kid can only see the angel. In the airplane where Damiel is walking a kid looks him in his face and he stops then smiles at her. Children are cute and innocent human beings so that can be why kids can be the only ones to see the angels.
