Henri V @hvalmont Oct 6, 2026 Everything before the booth is prologue. Paris, Texas is really a two-hour runway for twenty minutes in a peep-show booth in Houston - Travis on one side of the glass, Jane on the other, in a sweater and a haircut from another life. Wenders shoots the booth like a confessional and a crime scene at once. The texture is so thick you can practically smell the previous customer, and you don't care - because Nastassja Kinski and Harry Dean Stanton are giving the performances of the decade through a pane of glass, never once touching. He finally says everything he couldn't say when it mattered; she listens like someone hearing her own eulogy. A German director saw America clearer than the Americans ever did: the desert, the motels, the men who drive away from everything they love. The booth scene alone justifies the whole film - the rest is just Wenders being too in love with Texas to end it. See more Huntin P @PaxVobiscum80 Sep 20, 2026 Very strange and rather wonderful. Paris, Texas. A man arrives on foot at a filling station in the desert. He collapses. A business card helps identify his brother who comes to collect him. The man has been missing for several years. Where has he been? What triggered his disappearance? And as he starts to remember and to communicate again, what will he do next to surprise everyone? This is a slow, patient, lowkey drama, which will very likely have some viewers in tears by the end. An extraordinary and unique piece of filmmaking.

It is incredibly long and boring. Could be cut by half and would probably still be boring but over quicker.
