The American Friend

Based on the Patricia Highsmith novel 'Ripley's Game', this excellent, existentialist 'film noir' centres on an alienated Hopper at large in Germany, where his task is to locate and motivate a killer without a track record. He finds his hired man in the innocent Ganz, but loses his sense of identity in the process. Stirring stuff, with all that eloquent desolation that typifies Wenders' work.
