Review of Only Lovers Left Alive (2013) by Nick D — 25 Jan 2015
What a blast -- vampires as recluse blood-junkie anorexic musicians in Detroit and Tangiers. With Tilda and Hiddleston as the partners in a multi-century love affair, John Hurt as a guru/mentor figure (with a source for 'the good stuff'), Mia Mia Wasikowska as a very hungry bad-girl sister, and Jeffrey Wright as a greedy doctor who sells them blood.
Jarmusch is the master of mood, and there's plenty of it here. Check out the song list, too.
