A perfect role for Waits, and Lurie definitely has some star quality too. Amazed at the way this film works with the simplest, silliest things; that's the theme, even. Everyone just looks like they're having fun.

A verdade é que o cinema de Jarmusch transcende o bom ou ruim, é maravilhoso em essência, é um cinema tão honesto que não tem como não amar e a gente sabe que encontra isso em poucos diretores. BluraRip no MakingOff

(Viewed on 21/10/12): It's overrated in some circles, but D.B.L was Jarmusch really defining the cinematic identity that would later make him famous. The set up is a bit of a slog, and it's only when Benigni appears that the film picks up (Jarmusch is the only director to ever make a case for using Benigni, including Benigni). His lively naive fish-out-of-water character plays wonderfully off the hardened Waits and Lurie, and much (droll) hilarity ensues from their cultural clashes.

The movie shines in it's portrayal of the main characters minds, so to speak. In the prison cell, their moods, speech and the general atmosphere reminded me of how my experiences have been as a patient in psych wards. The development they go through in the relationship to one another, and so on. There is definitely depth and drama, amplified by the slow pacing, but from the prison cell and onwards there is a very big amount of, sometimes rather bizarre, comedy.
