Review of Broken Flowers (2005) by Jeffrey U — 13 Jul 2014
Jim Jarmusch directs this feature about a man on the verge of a mid-life crisis who receives an anonymous letter claiming he has a son, and is prodded into looking up the four possible women who could've sent the letter by his neighbor and friend.
Bill Murray is pretty great as the low-key Don Johnston, and the film is decent overall. It doesn't have big answers or wrap everything up in a nice pretty bow, but it is a decent film with a solid performance from Murray.
I wouldn't say it's Jarmusch's best work, but it is fairly entertaining.
