Noir and his Wall paintings can briefly be seen in the 1987 Wim Wenders film, "Wings of Desire". Noir met Wenders on a number of occasions at a local restaurant where he would sell some of his artwork. After talking multiple times per week, Wenders decided to put Noir in a scene where he was depicted standing on his ladder while working on the Berlin Wall. That ladder is now in the permanent collection of the Wende Museum in Los Angeles. In 2000, Noir was featured in the German documentary "Nach dem Fall" ("After the Fall"), in which he discussed his art and the importance of the Wall to Berlin only a decade after its fall.
