It’s hard, borderline impossible, to compare this scrappy curio of the No Wave movement with the polished all-star indie classics its director would go onto make, but, divorced from context and viewed purely as a piece of film art, there’s no denying that Permanent Vacation is the most redundant and unwatchable movie on this list. Filmed on 16mm sh...
Jarmusch’s latest venture into the world of direct genre cinema is an unfortunately middling affair. A playful yet frustratingly surface level riff on the zombie movie, the typically dry sense of humor and choice selection of faux-hipster stars (Murray! Waits! Sevigny! Buscemi!) can only bring The Dead Don’t Die to an inoffensive, passable level of...
Though in execution much of 2003’s Coffee and Cigarettes is incredibly small-scale and mundane, behind the scenes it stands out as one of Jarmusch’s most ambitious projects. A series of eleven short films shot over seventeen years and starring performers as diverse as Steve Coogan, The White Stripes, and the Wu-Tang Clan, it’s certainly a unique un...
For many film fans, this placement for Dead Man will appear criminally low, and it’s easy to see their viewpoint. Robby Muller’s stark black and white cinematography, Neil Young’s twangy electric guitar score, there’s plenty to admire and appreciate on a technical level about Jarmusch’s take on the western but thematic and narrative cracks begin to...
Despite routinely ranking in the last place on many a Jarmusch ranking, I couldn’t help but take something of a contrarian stance on The Limits of Control, even if I can acknowledge its flaws. A mostly silent exercise in tone and mood, Ivorian actor Isaach De Bankolé stars as a nameless protagonist traveling through Spain and his state of mind in t...
The first Jim Jarmusch movie to be shot on digital, the campy yet eerie vampire flick Only Lovers Left Alive is a more successful venture into arthouse-genre cinema if only because it seems to tackle its subject matter with less condescension and smarmy irony. It still has its flaws, this time ranging from inconsistent pacing and structural issues ...
A landmark moment for American indie cinema, one finds it hard in the 2020s to separate the impact and influence of Jarmusch’s second featureStranger Than Paradise from the quality of the film itself, and in my opinion that quality is one of a sadly mediocre standard. I’ve always found it strange than the 1984 Cannes Film Festival awarded this film...
In some cases, supposedly “selling out” can be a good thing, and the charming 2003 dramedy Broken Flowers is a prime example of that. Released two years after the underwhelming Coffee and Cigarettes, the film sees Jarmusch re-discover his groove for witty, insightful explorations of loneliness through the lens of a traditional rom-com plot, with Bi...
Jarmusch’s first, and by far most successful, stab at twisting the techniques of a well-established genre in Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai is an interesting and compelling little movie to watch unfurl. Buoyed by Forest Whitaker’s magnetic performance as the eponymous hitman, the allusions to both the samurai films of Kurosawa and the crime film...
21st century Jim Jarmusch movies indeed tend to get lost in their air of meta, self-referential, insufferable irony, but for a brief moment in 2016, the director showed how he could, still, when in form, create gorgeous examinations of the human condition. Paterson’s “plot” is almost impossibly simple, and what makes the film so effective is that t...
