'Wings of Desire'

Following a season of campy sing-alongs and crap-movie showcases, Central Cinema gets back in the capital-F Film business with Wim Wenders's 1987 classic Wings of Desire, in which eavesdropping angels oversee life in late-'80s Berlin and audiences are cast into a cinematic dreamscape without peer. It's a wonderful combination of film and venue, with Central Cinema's beer, wine, and midfilm intermission mingling perfectly with Wenders's adagio fantasia. (Central Cinema, 1411 21st Ave, 328-3230. 6:30 pm [all ages] and 9:30 pm [21+], $6.)

Great movie, but I'm assuming all Central Cinema is doing is projecting the DVD or new Blu-Ray? Let's champion those who make a little more effort into procuring and screening actual film prints! I'd also be curious to find out if Central Cinema even has the public performance rights to show that film..
