Trivia:
In a statement at a public screening Wim Wenders revealed that, just after _Don't Come Knockin' (2005)_ was delayed for a year, he found himself with plenty of time and the urge to shoot. He developed a treatment in just three days, and then they worked on the screenplay for three weeks and directly after that shot the entire movie in just 16 days.

A beautiful movie. With both main characters one could relate not to their viewpoints or naïve ways but to the persons themselves. I admit that this movie might just work better with European audiences but I feel that the leading roles were more inspired by an ideal than just by the American cliché. Also I understand that Lena and Paul were initially ideas who now live in that movie. There's more to them than just the missionary and the lunatic patriot. Even though it shows things that go wrong, it's very positive. For an outsider who has seen a bit of this country it's a mixture between reality and the imagination about that country. Maybe this movie is stronger in its pictures and moments of interpersonal relations than in its political dialogs.
