The Whimsical World of Jarmusch

I like Jia Muxu from "Only Love Forever", but in recent years, there are very few works by this genius director

I came across this old movie "Mystery Train" by chance

The interlaced sets of parallel time and space, all three stories have an indissoluble bond with Elvis' hometown of Memphis

Like a whimsical world in the American countryside, a boring adventure in life

still like the first story

Young couple came to Memphis from Yokohama, pilgrimage to...

Ajun and Photon

The rest of the stories in the film have become the series of the whole film. I only like the first story, A Jun and Photon, they are carrying suitcases one after the other, and they have to adjust their pace. The playful evening walks in a strange On the street of Memphis, Photon looked at this strange city with fresh curiosity, but for Jun, he had only been there. He has been to and seen this city far away from Yokohama in his life, he won't take pictures of the city's streets because he will...

coherent

Unexpected coherence, relying on night radio and early morning gunfire, makes the three stories connected. The most comfortable is the first story, probably because the Asian background is easy to absorb, some laughs really make me laugh Lol. The second story is very bland, I only feel that it is good to have money. The third story is very dramatic, an explanation. The story of the little people can be very real, whether it is maintained until a deliberate, flat life, or sudden tension ,...

Mystery Train Notes

1. People who are destined to be separated cross each other without knowing it, waiting for each other's next cross or the next fork in the road.
2. Breaking expectations, the sound of gunfire and the broadcast of the case report were premeditated climaxes, but nothing happened, and the three lines failed to converge into a thrilling ending.
3. "The scenery outside the car window is the same, we seem to have lived here for a lifetime" "Tennessee is Yokohama where 60% of the buildings...

Mystery Train

Tennessee, the hometown of Elvis Presley, a cheap and dilapidated Memphis hotel, three parallel stories intertwined with each other, happened in this hotel dedicated to Elvis Presley.
Story 1: A Japanese couple who are obsessed with American 1950s rock music come to Memphis. However, one is a fan of Elvis, and the other likes Carl Perkins, a musician who rose at the same time as Elvis. The two came to Elvis' hometown in a pilgrimage mood. The little details of romance in their lives didn't...

It's boring to be photographed so it's not interesting. I didn't turn it off after the movie ended, and the player was automatically put back to the beginning, the same scene, but the direction of the train was different, haha...

The characters are alienated and go their separate ways, and the focus on Elvis is just an improvement on the...

Three stories. time clues. Memphis. Sunshine Studio. Elvis. Cheap hotel. Gunshots in the morning. "Blue Moon". Occasionally drive past the train in the picture. I like the first paragraph of the story of two young Japanese men and...

Three different stories are connected by the same scene, but there is no real intersection. Jarmusch attaches great importance to the expression of the concept of distance, especially the communication barriers between characters: ruthless, helpless, absent-minded, etc. His stories lack drama, form fragmentation, but are very personal. He's good at "boring," and has a paranoid love for dream-seeking strays, rock, beats, and road...
