Review of Down by Law (1986) by Matt G — 18 Dec 2015
Jarmusch's film about the incarceration and unlikely friendship of three men is a disarmingly funny tale about loneliness and the lies we tell ourselves. The title itself is false, something these three convince themselves of so they don't have to take responsibility for their actions.
Lynch-ian surrealism and striking humanity all rolled into one.
