Description

[Machine Translation] [The first three films of Jim Jarmusch, the master of the independent film industry, are now available on Blu-ray and DVD at a low price! Jim Jarmusch is a master of the New York indie film industry and has a passionate fan base in Japan. In recent years, he has released several high-profile films such as "Coffee & Cigarettes" and "Broken Flowers," and his unique offbeat style, which consistently captures the outsiders of society, continues to attract moviegoers from all over the world. --Jarmusch's first 35mm feature, and his most popular film to date, won the Best New Director Award at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival, the Grand Prix at the Locarno International Film Festival, and the Best Film Award at the National Society of Film Critics Awards. When it was released in Japan, it was a long-running hit as a pioneer film of the mini-theater boom. Willie, who lives a yakuza lifestyle in New York, is asked by his aunt to take care of his cousin Eva, who is coming to the U.S. from Hungary, for a while. At first, Willie is a bit of a brat, but then his gambling buddy Eddie joins him... This is a story of gentiles in episodes consisting of "The New World," "One Year Later," and "Paradise. The music, which is neither action nor spectacle, is by John Lurie, who also stars in the film, and once you hear it, you will never want to leave. This is Jarmusch's original work, and is still considered a milestone in the American indie film industry for its unique offbeat atmosphere with a sense of weirdness and decadence. Director/Screenplay: Jim Jarmusch, Cast: John Lurie, Esther Balint, Richard Edson, Cecilia Stark, etc.
