Permanent Vacation : Mystery Train : Dead Man
The films in this exclusive limited-edition box represent a stylish, worldly, collection of American Independent film from a legendary and acclaimed director noted for his ironic wit, laconic style, and often his gorgeous black-and-white photography. Jarmusch's singular vision of life's eccentric moments and characters remains a unique experience for the film lover.Synopsis - Permanent Vacation (1980) The film that defined Jarmuschs unique style, Permanent Vacation is an intimate study in the search for meaning in life. Suffering a bout of insomnia, sixteen year old drifter, Aloysious (Chris Parker), wanders through downtown Manhattan in search of some kind of cure for his loneliness. A chance encounter leads him to commit a crime, perhaps more from boredom than personal gain, and sends him on a journey through a world populated by a series of larger-than-life characters: a busker (played by the legendary John Lurie); a dodgy, stolen car dealer; a war veteran, a French traveller who may be his doppelganger.Synopsis - Mystery Train (1989) A Japanese couple arrive on a pilgrimage to Elvis' hometown of Memphis, an Italian woman accompanying her dead husband receives messages from the King, while an ex-pat Englishman loses his job and his wife in the same day. One night in Memphis, the heart and soul of America, these three sets of parallel lives intersect at the seedy Arcade hotel manned by the legendary Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Taking its title from one of Elvis' own tunes, Mystery Train exemplifies director Jim Jarmusch's obsession with American popular culture and music.Synopsis - Dead Man (1995) Dead Man is the story of a young man's journey, both physically and spiritually, into very unfamiliar terrain. William Blake travels to the extreme western frontiers of America sometime in the second half of the 19th century. Lost and badly wounded, he encounters a very odd, outcast Native American, named "Nobody", who believes Blake is actually the dead English poet of the same name. The story, with Nobody's help, leads William Blake through situations that are in turn comical and violent. Contrary to his nature, circumstances turn Blake into a hunted outlaw, a killer, and a man whose physical existence is slowly slipping away. Thrown into a world that is cruel and chaotic, his eyes are opened to the fragility that defines the realm of living. It is as though he passes through the surface of a mirror, and emerges into a previously-unknown world that exists on the other side. |
