Director Jim Jarmusch
followed up his brilliant breakout film Stranger Than Paradise with
another, equally beloved portrait of loners and misfits in the American
landscape. When fate brings together three hapless men—an unemployed disc
jockey (Tom Waits), a small-time
pimp (John Lurie), and a
strong-willed Italian tourist (Roberto
Benigni)—in a Louisiana prison, a singular adventure ensues. Described by
Jarmusch as a “neo-Beat noir comedy,” Down by Law is part
nightmare and part fairy tale, featuring sterling performances and crisp
black-and-white cinematography by the esteemed Robby Müller. (USA, 1986, 107 mins, R, English | Dir. Jim
Jarmusch)
