This movie is 100% masterpiece. And it's uplifting. Most of the time I think of death I recall this movie. When I think of Native Americans I recall this movie. Now I can admire Jim Jarmush talking about his work in so cohesive way. What a beautiful mind. Thank you for sharing.
I had no idea what this movie was about when I sat down to watch. I never looked away from the screen, not once, until the end when Johnny was dying and I was crying. Excellent film. I just don't understand Hollywood on how they value films. Watching this film was a true experience.
Same. Never in a million years would I have said "Yeah let me put on a black & white Western film." I was intrigued the whole time.. Did Johnny play a part in this? Perhaps 🤗 He's such an incredible actor, and he definitely was the cherry on top to this acid western film. I couldn't picture another actor playing his role.
Ahead of its time? That has become an insult as people get dumber every day. The bar has already been lowered so much that saying has become the opposite of what it used to mean.
I agree. It's completely underrated! It takes you on such a huge emotional journey. I absolutely loved it, but I can understand why some people don't get it. Personally I think it was award-worthy, and never got the kudos it deserved.
I watched this with my ex shortly after discovering it, which is one if the reasons it's hard for me to rewatch nowadays. I was also in a weird dark place at the time and it tends to bring those feelings back. This interview helped me revisit the film on a much lighter and enlightening note.
In the one year I went to college, the teacher of psychology had a stack of movies we were to watch and write a report on it. Sharing emotions and thoughts. She specifically gave me Dead Man. I never heard of it. I watched it - just related and agree with Jim, this is hypnotic. And with Neil on guitar keeping the whole pace moving, this is my favorite movie with Johnny Depp. This is an underrated movie in my opinion.

Hmm....I haven't thought about it much...but JJarmusch says Johnny D carries the film. While I agree, the movie moves through his perspective, the movie moves through Nobody. Nobody guides Blake. I think the movie is guided by Nobody and Blake is the traveler.
Saw this film for the first time recently and it is solidly in my top 100, possibly top ten. Knew nothing about it even though I like Jim Jarmusch. It's one of the best films I've ever seen. Nice to see Charlie Rose cut off a genius guest's train of thought only two or three times for a change. Dude should be in a zoo.
He felt like the world has enough songs (art in this case) and doesn't need anymore unless you really have something to say. We don't need more just for the sake of having more
Right? Bothered me that he interrupted him too. Surprised me, since I thought Charlie Ross was rather respected and one of the great professionals. Unless I'm mistaken.
@@jmorgan3977 I mean you can literally see Jarmusch get progressively annoyed throughout the interview. Charlie Rose never stopped being a big deal in the industry till the allegations dropped but the celebrities he interviewed have generally expressed their distaste for him
He might have though. A good interviewer will act as a neutral party. He’s acting as the medium through the audience (who might be unfamiliar with the topic) will learn about the subject they aren’t necessarily knowledgeable about. As flawed as a person as Charlie Rose is, he was a good interviewer. Just my two cents.
The 2nd half of Dead Man was a let down tbh. It wasnt clear what the film was trying to say. I'd say the film goes down hill fast, after Wilson kills and cannabilizes his partner. The expectation was that there'd be a showdown between Blake and Wilson, but I think the audience is robbed of that sort of satisfying ending-- which is ok, but only if the ending is equally as good or interesting in some other way, but its just not a good final act.
His greatest film. A masterpiece and some of the best lines. “What’s a Philistine?” …Iggy Pop : “ It’s just like a real dirty person.” The putting of William Blake lines into the native’s mouth. Sneaky cultural Marxist… of course. 😔 Neil Young’s fabulous western ambient soundtrack which unfortunately was ruined by some bozo engineering when it was released. The U.S. films and media were taken over here with a slowly, slowly, slowly catch the monkey subversion. The dangers of too much free speech. Yep. I said it.
