Stranger Than Paradise Film To Watch Now
|
'Down by Law' is a movie about cheap whiskey and black coffee, all-night drunks and lost jobs, and the bad times you can have with good-time girls. It tells the story of a pimp, an unemployed disc jockey and a bewildered Italian tourist and how they escape from jail and wind up slogging through the Louisiana bayous looking for a decent place to have breakfast.

It's like a collage made out of objects from old gangster movies, old blues songs and old jailhouse stories. At the end, it's like a line of dialogue: 'It's a sad and beautiful world,' someone says. Someone else should say, 'Yeah, but so what?' The movie was directed by Jim Jarmusch. You may remember his 'Stranger Than Paradise' (1984), a deadpan black-and-white comedy in which three strangely assorted friends decided it was too cold in Cleveland in the winter, went to Florida and lost all their money at the dog races. 'Down by Law' has the same sort of feeling. It's about two people who choose to be losers and a third who has bought the American Dream.

The other two guys are played by John Lurie, who was the Hungarian-American poker player in 'Stranger Than Paradise,' and Roberto Benigni, a previously unknown Italian actor who resembles a cross between Father Guido Sarducci and Woody Allen. With an elastic lineup that boasted up to 9 members, Bellydance synchronised more with the club scene than the city's straight-ahead pub rock racket, naturally recruiting hometown heroes Peewee and John Ferris to remix their multi-track concoction.
