Watch: Die Angst des Tormanns beim Elfmeter 1972 123movies, Full Movie Online – After letting in an easy goal, experienced German goalkeeper Josef Bloch, believing it is offside, engages in a loud, fierce argument with the referee. Moments later he’s sent off; he packs his things into a small bag and catches the first tram into Vienna to wander aimlessly from his cheap hotel to the local cinema. Before long, the polite cashier Gloria catches Josef’s eye. She seems willing to hear him; can she prove a cathartic means of escape?.
Plot: A goalkeeper is sent off during a game for committing a foul. He spends the night with a cinema cashier, whom he afterwards kills. Although a type of detective film, it is more slow moving and contemplative than other films of the genre. It explores the monotony of the murderer’s existence and, like many of Wenders’ films, the overwhelming cultural influence of America in post-war West Germany.

How do we communicate with each other?
It is difficult to comment on such a brilliant movie without having read the book first, or even better, being familiar with Peter Handke’s narrative works. While it may seem evident (to us, accustomed to Hollywood’s conventional plots) that the main character of The Goalie… is a madman, it is not evident at all. Handke’s approach to narrative is to reflect exterior signs, rather than enter the character’s inner thoughts. See The Lefthanded Woman for example: while it may seem, on the surface, that the woman does not have a reason for divorce, in fact she might have a lot, only she does not reveal what is on her mind. Same applies to the goalie: he would not speak his mind, therefore we, and even Handke himself (or Wenders) can not enter his own intimate realm. Whatever his reasons are for what he does (and murder is only one of his unexplained acts) we can not know them. The film is about communication between people more than murder. It is funny that most of us would assume he is mad just because we can not find an account of his acts: if you think about it, in the real world outside the movie realm, most people -and even our closest friends- would not tell us why they do what they do. And it does not necessarily mean they are mad.
