What an amazing look into my favorite director. Everything he says resonates with me and gives me hope that life is not over and there are still strange and beautiful things to enjoy.. Thank you Jim for all you've done with your art and I still yell the Doppler effect joke from permanent vacation. Truly an artist. John lurie introduced me to you inadvertently through my love of his work and then I found tom waits... Well I found him first but I bad never seen a picture of him and the first time I heard him it was the song chocolate jesus. While in high school. It tool a few Yeats but I put you all together when I saw your films. Thank you for that, you'll never know how Mich that means to me ❤🐴🎷🎺🏆🥇
I've seen down by law over 200 times it just gets better and better for me that goes for stranger than paradise mystery train his early work is untouchable the hippest filmmaker ever and all cinephiles know it.
I think this is the interview of how I knew Jarmusch, I remember I was 13 and in our television (in Italy) I spend hours to watch many movies on Universal Channel. There was a late night program called "Viaggio nel cinema americano" and there were lots of great directors, like Lynch, Gilliam, Lumet, Coen bros and many others. For me, as a young cinema lover, was a great punch the jamusch cinema. I had never seen something like that and his cinema changed my life! Thank you Jim
I was privileged while visiting Paris from USA for first time in 2019 to see Night on Earth at a cinema in the latin quarter with french subtitles.Loved it!The electricity went off before film finished but what a treat.
Thanks for this gem - an air of natural relaxedness and flow of exchange however tense it might have been for both the interviewer and the interviewee. It could be longer. Joyful and inspiring and thought-provoking.
I’ve been a huge JJ fan since Stranger Than Paradise. Loved Down By Law, Mystery Train, Night On Earth, Dead Man and my favorite Ghost Dog. I always thought i should have played the role of Ghost Dog. I was an extra in a film starring Forest Whitaker(A Rage in Harlem). I love JJ’s reoccurring theme of foreigners in America. I always wanted to pitch him the idea of doing a story about my father. He was a black man from Tennessee who passed himself off as an Arab for most of his life. I grew up believing i was Arab until i took the dna test five years ago. Maybe I’ll have to make that film myself, but Jim if you wanna collaborate let me know. I think Leningrad Cowboys come to America and Wrist Cutters A Love Story were secretly directed by Jarmusch or those directors were seriously influenced by JJ. “Do they sell Chesterfields in Cleveland?” “Yeah, they sell Chesterfields all over.” “Go jump in de lake.” “Brand new fast food seafood restaurant just opened up-Jiffy Squid!” “Do you have any tobacco stupid white man?” “I don’t smoke.”
thank You! for a really amazing interesting Interview of One of my favorite Filmmaker and Musician- hope He never will Stop his great Work! long Time ago when I was at the Premiere 'Only Lovers Left Arrive' with a great after Concert....great Times!
Totally unique in a cookie cutter world. I remember one interview where Jim was asked about the boat perched on a roof in Ghost Dog. He said "If that had been a Hollywood movie, the producers would ask what the hell the boat had to do with the story." Unparalleled!
Wonderful to "meet" Jim, despite short, unprofessional and clumsy production. I would love to see his stuff. I'm from apartheid South Africa, where creative stuff was banned. Any links, any buddy ?
@@eugenio1542 I hope you'll be able to see his films! They are so wonderful and still inspire me even after seeing them 20 years ago for the first time :)
@@Carmel明慧 I found those 2 together THANKS. Ideal for a lazy late Sunday afternoon. Yes. He seems to be more cosmopolitan, bohemian creativity which is so human / emotional.
@@eugenio1542 yes, exactly! So human and authentic and made with love and care and no compromises, it's so rare to see now. Wish you enjoy your afternoon!
Him talking about how his film school wouldn't let him do a feature sounds exactly like my bullshit film school. I had the idea and means to make a feature with the time alloted for my short thesis flick, but they put their foot down. Unfortunately my scholarship check got sent to the school, not me :(
17:31 I have a shitty job that I hate. I'd much rather be making paintings but this society dictates that I can't simply be a happy painter. I have to go out and do this stupid job that I hate.
So amazing about not controlling things. I'm just an amateur model and actor and one day i was working with some friends outside in a roundabout road and shooting an add during the sunset. The idea was to catch the sun going down in my sunglasses so the camera was focused on my face for like 40-50 minutes. I swear to god i entered into a deep trance like meditation (i'm also a yogi) and i just froze myself into that position. A police car came by and stopped by us and asked what we were doing. He had the lights on. I never panicked for a moment, just stood still. My friends were explaining that we shoot this commercial and then he asked if i was wax statue and they laughed and said i was just a professional 😂😂 at this point my whole body was aching and i kinda felt amused but still didnt move and inch. the whole scene was magical and i wish someone recorded that. It would ve made a great movie scene about modelling or acting.
I think black and white footage is associated with something that's old. But eventually that will pass and people will just appreciate it for what it is - a format that signals that you're artsy. Just kidding, I really like B&W. It should be experimented with more in film making. Just take Sin City, for example. It looks amazing.
And....does he have to keep asking him to simply describe the process behind each film he made? FFS!!! When interviewers get the chance to interview a great filmmaker, spend time to put some interesting questions together. Don't just wing it!
This is Billy Bob Thornton. This dude plays the actor Billy Bob Thornton. Cover up the hair and close your eyes and listen. Just doesn't have the fake accent. I'm serious
This is what TH-cam was created for
Wholeheartedly agree

I hate having big thumbs that make these typos... You all know what I mean...

Absolutely love Jim. A brilliant director with a brilliant mind.
This was really good. It's soo good that there are still movie makers who make films they believe in and their not being a "product".

grateful for this beautiful interview
Beautiful, simply beautiful
Fantastic interview!! "Dead Man" is one of my top 3 films.
poetry too

Thank you for sharing this online. It was immensely interesting to me.
One of my favorites directors

generous answers
Actual interview starts at 5:11
nope!
Tysm for posting this! So much to take away so much to learn from, Jim is the man!
Stranger than Paradise is my favourite movie of Jim, although I love them all!

It's so cool that the interview so easy to find

Thank you for a real open speech given interview, love...Sylvia
Really enjoyed this. Thanks for posting ...

Hi Eugenio, you can find some of Jarmusch's films in full on TH-cam actually, at least I've seen some recently e.g. Night on Earth and Ghost Dog.
@@Carmel明慧 Thank you kindly for clear leads..

I made earrings with images from Stranger than Paradise and a pic of Jim Jarmusch ❤
Genius
I'm just love it. Happy that Im back to.
Thank you!
I loved “Permanent Vacation.” Such a flavor of your poetry, side streets of nyc wonderful. It was like looking from within a pounding heart.
p
Serious content, thanks.
thank you
Jim: You'll edit this later to make us look better?
Interviewer: Yes!
Jim reminds me of Lee Marvin.
He's actually part of a secret society called "The Sons of Lee Marvin" along with Tom Waits, John Lurie and Nick Cave, among others.
Him talking about how his film school wouldn't let him do a feature sounds exactly like my bullshit film school. I had the idea and means to make a feature with the time alloted for my short thesis flick, but they put their foot down. Unfortunately my scholarship check got sent to the school, not me :(
Who's the interviewer?
Some of the questions are off-target. The interviewer implies Jarmusch films are 'slow'. By today's quality cinema standards, they aren't slow at all.
This reminds me of my new premiering in 8000 eons👍😀
17:31 I have a shitty job that I hate. I'd much rather be making paintings but this society dictates that I can't simply be a happy painter. I have to go out and do this stupid job that I hate.
I know how you feel. I'm an art teacher.
4:48 bleü dat lil phone sound
❤❤❤❤❤
Who's the interviewer? What's the context here? Rome film festival? Tnx

What a strange place to talk so much about yourself
Couldn't you just have put " Ghost Dog " on instead?
🐐

And....does he have to keep asking him to simply describe the process behind each film he made? FFS!!!
