Finished it a few minutes ago and to be honest, I was expecting more. The overall atmosphere is very interesting, same for the camera angles. When it comes to the story, the movie could have been better. Think it's supposed to express the way Allie feels, but the lack of dialogues kind of killed it. Just me though. Anyway, this was my first Jarmusch; also just got his collection - hope it'll get better from here.

This film has a haunting and foreboding feel to it that is completely different from the rest of Jarmusch's films (that I've seen). Although there is little to no plot, the sheer atmosphere and feel of the film makes it great in my opinion.

Jim Jarmusch's first feature effort may ultimately be just a pretentious student film, but it has enough strangely compelling and inspired moments to keep it interesting, particularly in its stark depiction of underground New York. Jarmusch would go on to make much better films, but this is an interesting look at his budding talent.

A little raw but all the Jarmusch hallmarks are here. I had a problem with Chris Parker though. He just wasn't strong enough to carry this film. But, the scene with Frankie Faison and his "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" story was wonderful, along with the way Lurie dissected the piece with his sax later on the street.

It was okay, I was probably expecting too much out of it. Dead Man is still the best, with Paradise a close second.

I love this film to bits, but I know it's not perfect. The opening and closing monologues? Bloody brilliant!
