Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe turbulent relationship between the main characters was inspired by the director Pawel Pawlikowski's real-life parents, who did break up and get together a couple of times, who moved from one country to another, and according to Pawlekowski, died together.
- GoofsWhen Wiktor crosses the border to West-Berlin in 1952, we can see on the horizon a high-rise with a rotating Mercedes-Benz star on the top. This is supposed to be the famous Europa-Center, but that was built in 1963 and only completed in 1965. It's probably poetic license to visually distinguish the capitalist West from the communist East.

Featured review
"Cold War" is an overrated romance with magnificent cinematography and chemistry of the lead couple. Unfortunately the storyline of two lovers incapable to be together or distant from each other is not attractive despite some good moments. My vote is seven.
