What a marvellous film!
'Paris, Texas' is a slow, subtle, dark and moody film that deals with love, forgiveness and redemption. It starts off with some stunning desert images where a Harry Dean Stanton wanders around until he is found by his brother. The enigmatic soundtrack stays in tune with the situations. The cinematography adds a spacious but lonely feel.
The ending is incredibly moving - one of the most emotional passages in any movie I've ever seen. The speech lasts nearly ten minutes! It lingers with you long after the credits roll.
