2.4.3 Who is Wim Wenders? (U2)
[SR] Wim Wenders is a German movie director. He started working with U2
for his movie called "Until The
End Of The World" whose soundtrack includes the U2-song of the same name.
I think Wim and the boys
became friends and their meet is probably due to the fact that the band
stayed in Berlin during the recording of
Achtung Baby. However the next WW movie, called "Faraway, So Close" also
includes the U2 song of the
same name.
[SL] Wim also directed the video for "Stay", and the images of Bono
climbing up some statue are an allusion to
the movie "Faraway, So Close" which is a follow-up to "Wings of Desire"
[MPZ] Wim Wenders will be directing "The Million Dollar Hotel", which
Bono wrote the screenplay for.
