series Indie 80s
Directed by Jim Jarmusch | 1984
With John Lurie, Eszter Balint, Richard Edson
"A constant, almost kaleidoscopic experience of discovery."
—Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Arguably the quintessential indie film of the 1980s, Jim Jarmusch’s deader-than-deadpan comedy follows New York hipster Willie (jazz musician Lurie), his buddy (ex-Sonic Youth drummer Edson), and Hungarian cousin (Balint) on the world’s most bummed-out road trip from Cleveland to Florida. With its monochrome, minimalist cool and Screamin' Jay Hawkins soundtrack, Stranger Than Paradise ushered in a new era of low-budget American filmmaking.
