Man alone (Isaac de Bankole, hard and cold and hard, and never do almost anything) is in front of Creole and French. Creole language Spanish, who does not understand, and translate into French. He is going to Madrid. Give him a box of matches. We go to Madrid by plane. There he meets different people and exchange of boxes of matches with them, he sits at an outdoor cafe and always 2 espresso. When he meets his Nude (Paz de la Huerta) attempts to seduce him, but she fails.Not until the labor market. Wears a blue dress and metallic looks awesome, after all, wearing a brown suit and rust metal still looks impressive. Then back to blue. He is always asked: "You do not speak Spanish, is not it?" He always responds with "No" in English, his speech with an accent, but where is from, where everything from .... there are elements.
In each book of the Games is a small piece of paper with cryptic symbols, says the man, quickly, and then eats it. Moves upward byPerson to person, sometimes verbal, sometimes not. Travels by train to Seville, where to get a guitar and give it to someone else, at some point, his box of matches with diamonds. He is an agent - or courier, transporting stolen goods - a mafia - do not know. Finally, comes out in a dry, scrubby, rural area. It 'a big house, almost a fortress, the helicopter, one sees from time to time throughout the film seems to be connected. Meetsomeone who does not produce results, and something happens ...
Jim Jarmusch continues in parody or deconstruction of the various measures / macho genre, began a Dead Man (west) and continue with Ghost Dog (Samurai) and gangster movie. This time you go to cool riffs of the '60s such as John Boorman thriller Point Blank, and some of the films of Jean-Pierre Melville, and perhaps even James Bond and the entire Cold War spy thriller genre so popular by John LeCarré. His style seems different from all the French New Wave - Jacques Rivette, the sense of time and often think of conspiracy, along with the light itself, a playful dialogue interrupted by long pauses, something Chantal Akerman-for-nothing, absolutely nothing happens spectacle built, Alain Resnais has clear visual texture. It 'probably his least funny film up to this stage of his ambiguous and a challenge that would have gone away from hitting any notes,Resonate with a mainstream audience. No wonder you do not get much of a statement.
But for me it is simply his best film dead. The growing unrest and sense of something wrong - not with the Lone One, in particular, or anyone else, in fact, until the last person he meets, in this fortress bunker-building in the desert - but concerned about the meaning lack of goals and meaning, both this character and of much of modern life. Time spent in airports,Buses, spent in the car, walking here and there - but little time to do something. Man alone is always a zero, does not seem to sleep, we see him in bed, still with eyes open, which stays in expensive hotels, the keys to several people in his travels - how can I pay? where he lives?, go to museums and look at Spanish cubist paintings.
The film is minimalist, all rights of the surface, a film that is full of wonderful (courtesy of Christopher DPDoyle), sounds (Boris and others) and allusions to many of Jarmusch's earlier works, particularly the dead. The regular repetition of the question of rhyme echoes the joke about the Spanish tobacco, and that the use of matchboxes offering another point of similarity. How does William Blake in the previous films, the man himself, of course, is not of this world, but unlike Blake he aware of this and passes it to its own obscure reasons. And as the film is full of poetryAllusions, the boundaries of providing regular movie references, sometimes more or less came from nowhere - and this is an allusion in a sense, the New Wave, Jean-Luc Godard, in particular, as in the previous film, the main character seems completely ignorant of what everyone else tries to tell you with references. The whole film is a journey, but if you end up with a climax of this kind is known, completely empty, and there are more questions than we started on the leftwith. Surfaces can mirror, or cloudiness, of which very little can be broken without intensive efforts. Perhaps there is nothing, and maybe you think this is just a big pretentious, hipster Jim Jarmusch joke on you. Could be. But if you intend to respond, ask that enjoy Crazy permit.
An impossible, unfathomable, and infinite good movie in 2 or 3 best new film I saw in 2009, and only one thing to expect, how can I improve and growconsidered, followed by me.
