Life is not all stories of "occurrence, development, and end" and conflicts of "generation, intensification, and resolution", as well as indifference and daze without pursuit.

Jarmusch's films are full of literary and artistic style, and each film has a core keyword. "Patterson" is poetic connotation, "Ghost Dog Killer" is the adherence to the Tao, and this film is a life of nothingness.

A few actors, three young people and an old lady, they have no pursuit, what are they going to do, they are not very interested in watching TV, they are not particular about eating, and they want to play where they want to play. The girl took the dollars that the underworld had intertwined, and the underworld wanted to find them. now, run! We are worried, this is a feature film approach, the cause of the event has developed, and we are waiting to see how to solve it. No, the story cannot be told, the movie is over. This is a movie that is divorced from the story. Jiamusu is proud of his method. There is very little dialogue, and the dark links between the bridge segments reflect a feeling of alienation, irrelevance, and aimlessness. Show the life we ​​all live, but ignore on the screen.

Akikorismaki has a movie "Sit tight, Tesina" is similar to this one, a road movie, a few young people are tired of life, drive around for a while, and take a trip where they want to go, the story To be more complete, more endearing. This film has achieved the director's purpose, but it is too dull and not exciting. You have to keep watching it. You need to read the movie reviews to find the beauty after watching it. It is too boring.
