Devoted to Jim
I fell in love with Roberto Benigni when i discovered him in 'Down by law' (memorable lines include "there's no rrroom to swing a cat" and "if looks could kill, i would bee ded"), and i gave Wynona a second chance after watching her in 'Night on Earth': Jim Jarmusch's films make the world a much cooler place.

So now he has finally made a long film out of the 1996 'Strange to meet you' feature. One of my favourite directors has put together most of my favourite people in a movie about some of my favourite vices.

Coffee and cigarettes will give you brilliant eye rolling by Meg and Jack White, trademark conversations by ohmygod Iggy Pop and Tom Waits, plus the incredible screen presence of the greatest Cate Blanchett. I simply can't believe i haven't seen this film yet.
