People Wim Wenders is slightly annoying director (although perhaps not as annoying as someone like Michael Bay). He is capable of producing films of incomparable beauty -- 'Paris, Texas' and 'Wings of Desire' and yet recently he succumbed to the disease many of the great directors have -- 'badfilmitis'. All of greats have fallen (Spielberg - AI, Coppolla - Jack (for heavens sake), Scorsese - Goodfellas (controversial), Lucas - you know what), Wender created 'The Million Dollar Hotel', film so bad it only real star Mel Gibson branded it 'dull' -- which is saying something. Judging by this interview, it's clear Double Take magazine didn't know what to do with him either.
