Our beloved Harry Dean Stanton stars in Paris, Texas, a profoundly moving character study written by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Sam Shepard. New German Cinema pioneer Wim Wenders (Wings of Desire) brings his keen eye for landscape to the American Southwest and this story of a mysterious, nearly mute drifter Travis (a magnificent Stanton, whose face is a landscape all its own) as he tries to reconnect with his young son and his missing wife (Nastassja Kinski). From this simple setup, Wenders and Shepard produce a powerful statement on codes of masculinity and the myth of the American family, as well as an exquisite visual exploration of a vast, crumbling world of canyons and neon.
