Paris, Texas

(1984) dir Wim Wenders w/Harry Dean Stanton, Hunter Carson, Dean Stockwell, Nastassja Kinski [147 min; DCP]

Perhaps the apex of the collaboration between Müller and Wenders, PARIS, TEXAS features gorgeous wide-open vistas punctuated by bursts of brilliant neon. In this “story of America,” Stanton plays a man who walks out of the desert seemingly having lost his memories and his voice. As he slowly regains both, he is reunited with the son he left years earlier and the two go on an elegiac search for the boy’s mother.

A "Double Feature" ticket additionally allows admission into the 9:30 PM screening of THE AMERICAN FRIEND. No additional purchase is necessary.
