Jarmusch spoke a gloomy and eerie "Alice in Wonderland" in his own language. He let William Blake fall into a mysterious world. On the way to escape, he met all kinds of people, including Indians with rough backgrounds, Three robbers, a bounty hunter who came to capture William, a priest in the trading center, a cannibal killer. From the time the Indians appeared, the whole film inevitably exudes a strong mysterious and exotic religious atmosphere, accompanied by strange colors. It is Jarmusch's style, not Jarmusch's style, there is no absurd black humor, only sudden death, life like an ant, but it retains the mysterious sense of Jarmusch that has always been there, the difference is This time the religious atmosphere is stronger, the soundtrack is very simple, there are only a few simple tunes over and over, but it is very powerful. Most of the charm of Jiamusu's films comes from the shaping of the characters, and this time it is even more so. The killer of people, the three robbers, these secondary characters are perfect, not to mention Depp's male protagonist, after his face was painted with religious symbols by Indians, the film began to change a color , when the bounty hunters found Depp, Depp asked them if they had read William Blake's poem, and shot them dead with a blank face.
Do you have some tobacco? The film kept asking William Blake from the beginning, Do you have some tobacco? William answered that he never smoked, but the question kept asking, I was thinking, what does this tobacco represent? What? William asked the priest if he had tobacco at the trading center. The priest took out two bundles. This was the first time the real tobacco appeared in the film. It was told to him that it was specially prepared for your journey, and William replied again, but I don't smoke. What exactly is tobacco? I think it may represent "maleness", or "courage", or the opposite of "cowardice".
