Mar 8, 2023 · roberto benigni. stranger than paradise. winona ryder. From the limits of control to the ways of samurai, here are all of Jim Jarmusch's movies, ranked from worst to best.
- Broken Flowers (2005) One of the director’s most enjoyable mainstream successes, Broken Flowers also netted the Grand Prix of the 2005 Cannes Film Festival, and re-teamed Jarmusch with his Coffee and Cigarettes co-star Bill Murray.
- Night on Earth (1991) An enjoyable omnibus, each story occurs in the evening, in taxis all over the world.
- Permanent Vacation (1980) The director’s debut feature and winner of the Josef von Sternberg Award at the 1980 Mannheim-Heidelberg International Film Festival, Permanent Vacation is, though his most novice project, also in many ways Jarmusch’s quintessential film.
- The Dead Don’t Die (2019) At first glance it doesn’t seem to fit that ol’ Jim should mix and mingle with zombies, but really if you look hard at his considerable CV on this very list, his many genre diversions jump out and grab at you.
- “Stranger Than Paradise” (1984) After what felt like a trial run with “Permanent Vacation,” this post-normal road movie provided a perfectly numbed statement of deadpan purpose, becoming one of the most influential American films of the 1980s.
- “Paterson” (2016) Over the decades, Jarmusch crafted misfit characters inhabiting environments that kept trying to spit those people out. Adam Driver’s bus driver-poet in “Paterson” is the strange culmination of those lives when they finally find their way home.
- “Mystery Train” (1989) A collection of characters lost in Memphis, tangentially connected by the idea of Elvis Presley, crisscross and live out existential questions with no answers.
- “Ghost Dog: The Way of The Samurai” (1999) Ghost Dog, as portrayed by Forest Whitaker, is a complex antihero. A hit man with a code of honor, he’s a quietly serious embodiment of loyalty, literature, hip-hop, tenderness, slow motion communication (via carrier pigeon and friendship with a man who speaks no English) and murder.
