Review of Down by Law (1986) by Jimmy M — 04 Mar 2013
Probably Jarmusch's most effective film brought to life by its three leads who play life long losers with clashing personalities who end up in a prison cell together. Benigni is electric as an italian tourist who speaks little enligsh and has mother issues.
Waits is also great as a talented DJ who keeps getting fired due to his pride. Great cinematography with long contrasty takes the really allow you to soak in the black and white setting.
