Feb. 21st, 2006 09:54 pmDid I ever mention I worship Wim Wenders? ::giggles:: I just saw his Million Dollar Hotel, and I'm speechless. Such a beautiful, great work of art...
I decided to see it just because it was by Wenders and because it had Milla in it, and now I'm totally charmed. The story, it's told by an 'idiot', his best friend died, and a fbi agent (Mel Gibson) thinks he was killed and wants to find out who did it. All the movie takes place in this run-down hotel full of mentally-ill freaks, a Court of Miracles. As in other movies by Wenders, what's important about it isn't the story, but the way it's told, the mood, the light and the dark. And I loved Milla Jovovich to pieces, she was so perfect playing this unique character, half an angel, half a schizoid girl. Not to mention the soundtrack by U2 (Bono also did the script), it fills you with such a feeling of loneliness and sadness, it's heartbreaking. Definitely a keeper.
