“It was my first diary film. It is about ‘new wave music’ (among others, Jim Jarmusch’s band, Del-Byzanteens), about straying in New York, about the editing process of Hammett in the presence of Francis Ford Coppola, about a novel by Emmanuel Bove, and about Edward Hopper. And somehow, the whole thing was a reflection about filmmaking in Europe and America”. -Wim Wenders
