Paris, Texas- Wim Wenders *Editor’s note: From the barrage of stills, Tumblr seems to be in love with this film, in particular, this image. Never having seen the film, it immediately struck me as iconic. Yes, Nastassja Kinski is beautiful and you can’t help but stare in her eyes, but I had nothing else to go on. I would sometimes amuse myself and think of several different scenarios that would eventually lead her to just sit and stare directly at the camera. When I finally got around to watching Paris, Texas, I was incredibly moved by this scene. Without giving anything away, it’s just two people having the most frank and honest conversation they can muster. It’s crushing in how simple it is and how much information is conveyed in these relatively short scenes.
