That's ok, I like it, but you've forgotten a very important trademark number 4 >>>> Car driving sequences. The amazing way Jarmusch shots cars in movement, people driving cars, views from inside cars, etc, is only equaled by (or maybe learned from?) Wim Wenders. Good channel Fandor, keep going ;-)
You are correct about car sequences. I am in awe about them ... And have very profound impact on me . That music intertwined with each frame shot from outside and then quickly swapped from inside intermittently. The faces absorbed in the business of the whole sequence, with a sepulchral look all over them. Very consuming indeed.
I love Jim Jarmusch so much. I think he is the best Filmmaker in motion picture history. Stranger Than Paradise, Down by Law, Mystery Train, Night on Earth, Dead Man, Coffee and Cigarettes and Paterson. These films are my favorites. He’s style, he’s characters, he’s cinema is so charming and delightful. I am a fan of Hollywood Cinema. I like Kubrick, Scorsese and Coen Bros etc. But Jim Jarmusch is way better than all of them. He’s cinema is beyond perfection. Also Paterson is my #1 favorite film of all time.
for me it's Night on Earth, Dead Man, and Ghost Dog. Whenever I make art (be it music, painting, or writing) i try to capture that sense of loneliness and being an outsider as an essential part of humanity, regardless of time period or culture.
I think another "trademark" in Jarmusch's movies are the communication conflicts and misandertanding talk between the characters... in "coffee and cigarettes" it is more evident, but it appears somehow in all of his movies... It can be about different languages, as in the Begnini and Steven Wright talk, or about worldview, or even about different expectations about an occasional meeting...
Nice work but you should correct the date of Stranger than Paradise from end credits. The film is from 1983 (the original short film) and 1984 (the feature version). That would be perfect.
