A most unusual black and white
western starring Johnny Depp
from the modern master of
offbeat American cinema: Jim
Jarmusch. Jarmusch began the
new wave of independent cinema
with Stranger Than Paradise,
also shot deliberately in
black and white. Down by Law
(also part of the Moser Baer
canon) an offbeat comedy made
him more popular. Dead Man
is his masterwork, and has
become a cult film. Depp plays
an outlaw who travels deep
into the extreme frontiers
of America to confront the
horror and comedy of the wild
west. |
