Dead Man

Movies run through metaphors can seem boring, but Jarmusch's Stranger is an exception, at least for me. In fact, the metaphor here is not difficult to understand, and Jarmusu is not as difficult to approach as he imagined. In movies that express hallucinations or whimsy, Western directors are really good at it. I like such movies very much, such as "Trainspotting" and "My Heart is Wild". The premise is that the director must have the ability, and the difficult can also use the magic Express ideas.

I think the word that best sums up the style of this movie is - alienation. Jarmusch reminds me of Wong Kar Wai, equally lazy and freewheeling. With the same absolute reliance on the soundtrack, it is hard to imagine what "DEAD MAN" would be like without the guitar solo, which is as clear as cutting through the sky from time to time. NEIL YOUNG's soundtrack really amazes me. The process of watching the movie is like watching a rock music MV. The music and the movie's artistic conception fit so beautifully, which makes people addicted.

In fact, one of the themes of this film is of great interest to me - death. Jarmusch was so clever that a bullet was shot in the chest of the protagonist William Blake - almost to the heart but not, but he was getting weaker day by day, and he was a "walking dead man". Such a parable is amazing, man must die. And we don't seem to know it. The next question is "how to die", "how to live" is "how to die", and vice versa. I remember a sage who said that human life is a process of constantly learning about death. If you don't know death, you don't know how to live.
