On the road from London to Bristol, a 1970’s radio DJ goes looking for answers about what happened to his dead brother that don’t seem to exist.

Wim Wenders (Paris, Texas) pays loving homage to rough-and-tumble Hollywood film noir with The American Friend, a loose adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel Ripley's Game. Dennis Hopper (Easy Rider) oozes quirky menace as an amoral American art dealer who entangles a terminally ill German everyman...

Phillip is a roving German reporter who, after a chance encounter with an elusive American woman, reluctantly accepts temporary custody of little Alice. Their friendship grows while traveling through various European cities on a search for the girl’s grandmother.

A landmark film from the New German Cinema, Wenders’s iconic road movie offers up a cool portrait of post-war Germany—and its cinemas—through two lonely, sensitive souls. Photographed in sumptuous black-and-white by legendary cinematographer Robby Müller, the film was also dedicated to Fritz Lang!
