Review of Stranger Than Paradise (1984) by Kenneth B — 01 Feb 2014
Jarmusch is minimalist to the core with this one, and yet manages to pull off a solid story. A small black and white gem that deserves a larger audience. There are required viewing movies for classics and required viewing for film history.
There are thousands upon thousands of movies that film buffs and film makers should watch or at least keep in mind about getting around to seeing. Stranger than Paradise is one of those I'd eagerly recommend to anyone who likes the thought of making movies but gets overwhelmed by the prospect of getting involved in what seems like such a complicated process.
It just goes to prove that something amazing can be made out of something simple with a little forethought and a lot of care.
