Wim Wenders: I would like to be Pacino

The U2 concert film "U2 3D" inspired the filmmaker to explore 3D possibilities, leading to a realization about storytelling. He emphasizes the importance of using native 3D techniques, contrasting with the common single-camera approach that he finds unrealistic. Although he briefly met James Cameron, they never had an in-depth discussion about 3D's potential. The filmmaker believes 3D can create meditative atmospheres, suitable for various genres, including documentaries. He notes Hollywood's apprehension towards 3D due to its tendency to expose flaws in performances, which agents fear could harm their actors' careers. He chose to focus on Peter Zumthor for his film due to a long-standing interest in his work.
