Jim Jarmusch finished the script for Mystery Train, a deadpan triptych set on the wrong side of the tracks in Memphis, without ever laying eyes on the place.

• "Jim Jarmusch takes off, and the meter is running". San Jose Mercury News. May 29, 1992. ART-HOUSE darling Jim Jarmusch goes almost mainstream with Night on Earth, a quirky little comedy about five cabbies in five cities. If the results play more like a vintage Fellini omnibus than a Taxi Driver melodrama, that's because Jarmusch, even in an expansive mood, remains a rarity among American independents: the film maker who lives to celebrate fringe types drifting among life's incongruities.
• Katzman, Lisa (May 3, 1992). "The Jarmusch touch in Night on Earth, America's coolest director exhudes a new warmth". Chicago Tribune. Walking into the cafe where we've agreed to meet on a hot spring day, director Jim Jarmusch takes off his signature black leather jacket. It's the type worn by blues musicians, '50s greasers and the downbeat bohemian odd couple Willie and Eddie of Jarmusch's second film Stranger than Paradise. A small triangular silver Triumph motorcycle pin affixed to the lapel is a tip-off to one of Jarmusch's chief recreational passions. Among Jarmusch cognoscenti, the shock of thick, almost white hair that rises from his head in a handsomely shaped post-punk spike is another unmistakable signature.

  In the eight years since Stranger than Paradise became an arthouse hit, Jarmusch has garnered a loyal but limited American audience. Yet abroad, particularly in Japan and Europe, both Jarmusch and his films have achieved cult status. For foreigners, perhaps even more so than for Americans, Jarmusch's films are the sine qua non of post-modern American hipdom. They articulate a distinctly funky, low-tech, outcast vision of American society that in both ethos and esthetics draws upon and amusingly blends the past five decades of postwar culture. While in content his films quietly defy Hollywood's myths of American progress and prosperity, in form (due to their stylistic simplicity and small budgets) they are a retort to the movie industry's bloated excess.

  Recently, at the Yugoslavian film festival, 6,000 people turned out to fill a 4,000-seat theater for a midnight showing of Jarmusch's latest film, Night on Earth in wartorn Belgrade. In the past several months a traveling "Jim Jarmusch Film Festival" was held in major cities throughout Poland. Czechoslavakia will soon hold such a festival. And in Japan, where the director is a national celebrity, he is offered huge sums to appear in and direct commercials. To date he has turned down all offers.

  You think that either this is a deadpan Jarmusch put-on or a mystical vision of the American frontier. It's some of both.

The black-and-white production seems almost a meeting of minds between Sam Peckinpah and Jean Cocteau, mingling caustic naturalism with a dreamlike poetic lyricism. Exploring a spiritual sub-terrain that few other westerns have touched, Dead Man borrows puns from The Odyssey of Homer, wealthy villains and hired goons from the Depression era's...

Then Miramax sent him on the road to promote his new movie, Dead Man. He slumps in his chair and moans, "presssss jjjunket."

And for a while, it's one of his most beautiful and evocative. You start out thinking it might be one of the great revisionist Westerns, depicting as it does the West as a hellscape in black and white. It conjures up period photographs, leaving no doubt about the brutality of the period...
• "Dead Man disguised as a western, is a beautiful voyage of the soul". Miami Herald. May 10, 1996. Dead Man, director Jim Jarmusch's first movie in four years, is a western, but though it bears the trappings of the genre, it's unlike any western you've ever seen. That was to be expected. But Dead Man is also different from any movie Jarmusch has ever made. All his trademarks are here: The laconic pace, the deadpan humor, the detours into sublimely ridiculous territory.

There is only a landscape that America the conqueror has emptied of its natives and turned into a capitalist charnel house. The Western is the American cinema's pride and joy as well as its good will ambassador, and the alleged acuity with which it reflects what's going on in American society has been an urgent topic for sociologically minded critics and 'genre theorists.' Even during its fallow periods (early Thirties, late Seventies through Eighties), there has been a persistent desire to track its shifting configurations as though it was an ongoing State of the Union address.

With his latest film, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, formalist wiseacre Jim Jarmusch (Stranger Than Paradise, Dead Man) attempts to blend gangster, hip-hop, cartoon and Japanese action-movie elements into one poker-faced satiric hybrid. It's a fundamentally fun idea that doesn't mesh very well with the filmmaker's detached, cooler-than-thou aesthetic attitude.
• "Cinematography, Whitaker save Ghost Dog". The Detroit News. March 17, 2000. det7435546. It has been 15 years since Jim Jarmusch first wowed the movie-going world with his sad, zany absurdist comedy Stranger Than Paradise. Ever since, Jarmusch has more or less been going on the goodwill and blind faith that movie engendered. Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, a half-baked fusion of gangster picture and dichotomy-ridden samurai philosophy, tests the loyalty of Jarmusch fans one more time.

Jim Jarmusch, perhaps the most bizarre and arresting thinker in American independent film, threatens to cross the line into wider currency with Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. He has fashioned a philosophical film noir that combines a European sensibility and wit with hip-hop, martial arts and the Mafia revenge saga.

• "Ghost Dog is wildly fun". The Roanoke Times. April 22, 2000. Jim Jarmusch movies are definitely a matter of taste. To some, they're slow-moving and pointless. Then there are those of us who extol their dead-pan sense of humor, utter coolness, bizarre plot turns and affection for everything seedy. These two camps seldom find common ground, so those of us in the movie reviewing trade risk a lot of heat when we rave over a new Jarmusch movie.

*"Director Jim Jarmusch delivers offbeat mob movie Ghost Dog". The News Tribune. April 21, 2000. Jim Jarmusch makes movies unlike anyone else's. They're unhurried.

• Covert, Colin (August 6, 2004). "Movies: Jim Jarmusch". Star Tribune. Oak Street Cinema's two-week showcase of indie filmmaker Jarmusch offers a lot of tedious, in-between moments that perhaps aren't so banal after all. Events in Jarmusch's films seem accidental and random, and his oddball characters often seem like tourists in their own lives. And there's a breezy unconcern with plot. The story crawls around the edges of the film, never quite taking center stage and concluding its unfinished business. Instead there's deadpan humor, running jokes and a proudly uncommercial sense of what moviemaking can be.

Character

• "The anti-professional". The Sacramento Bee. July 11, 2004. Famed writer/director Jim Jarmusch, to the surprise of many fans, prefers to call himself an amateur.

  I consider myself an amateur filmmaker, not a professional one, because the root of the word 'amateur' is lover of something, of a form, and 'professional' means you do it for money, for career, and I don't think of myself that way," the filmmaker says.

• Kennedy, Mark (March 19, 2000). "Jim Jarmusch refuses to go along". The Columbian. Associated Press. He's never seen Obi-Wan Kenobi spar with Darth Vader, or Rhett Butler pop off to Scarlett.

  Jim Jarmusch, the art-house filmmaker who helped spark a renaissance in independent film, refuses to actually sit through some of the classics of American cinema.

  "I pledge I will go to my grave having never seen Gone with the Wind or any Star Wars film," Jarmusch says. "Just to be obstinate. No other good reason."

  It's a typical stance from a moviemaker who stubbornly creates films that critics often complain are too long, too meandering, and too often in black and white.

• McKenna, Kristine (May 5, 1996). "Dead Man Talking". Los Angeles Times. "The first movie that made an impression on me was Thunder Road, a B-movie about moonshiners that starred Robert Mitchum," he recalls. "My family was on vacation in Florida and my mother and sister took me to see it at a drive-in. I was 7 at the time, and it was the first movie I saw that wasn't a children's film. It was a violent story set in a dark, criminal, adult world, and I remember there were lots of speeding, throbbing, hopped-up cars.

  Like all kids, I loved movies, but literature was the most important thing to me then, and it played the biggest role in shaping any understanding or beliefs I have about mysticism and metaphysics," he continues. "My parents were Episcopalian but I never wanted to go to church with them because I didn't like the idea of sitting in a stuffy room wearing a little tie, so I used to hide on Sundays. It wasn't until I was in my mid-teens that I started thinking about theology, and it was literature that led me there. Starting with Dante and Aristides, the English poets and the Romantic poets—there are so many writers I love.

  As he explains in a question-and-answer session with fans on the new DVD of his 1991 film Night on Earth, he views labels such as "independent cinema" to be "completely irrelevant." Rather, he sees himself as an "amateur" who makes movies because he loves film, as opposed to a "professional" who does it for the paycheck. {{cite news}}: |access-date= requires |url= (help)

A dozen years ago, when his second feature, Stranger Than Paradise, catapulted him to worldwide fame, Jim Jarmusch seemed at the height of arthouse fashion. Having already known him a little before then, I could tell that the extent to which he suddenly became a figurehead for the American independent cinema bemused him in certain ways. Given the aura of hip, glamorous downtown Manhattan culture that seemed to follow him everywhere, how could it not? I can still recall a New York Times profile a few years back that was so entranced by his image that it suggested that, simply because Jarmusch chose to live in the Bowery, that neighborhood automatically took on magical, ...

Over the last decade [Jim] Jarmusch has established himself as one of the leading independent filmmakers of his generation with such comedic and ironic films as "Stranger Than Paradise," "Down by Law," "Mystery Train," "Night on Earth" and "Dead Man." With his latest film, which he wrote, produced and directed, Jarmusch once again marches to the beat of his own drummer.
• Rosen, Steven (March 19, 2000). "Change may be in the wind: Jarmusch indie film has mainstream feel". The Denver Post. Jim Jarmusch, one of the most fiercely independent of current American writer-directors, has never cared if his movies gain mass acceptance.

  He's been content to appeal to the devoted if limited audience that responds to film as art. And that audience has embraced his Stranger Than Paradise, Down By Law, Mystery Train and Night on Earth.

  By combining odd characters, dark comedy and an incredibly hip atmosphere in classic art-house films such as Down by Law and Stranger Than Paradise, Jarmusch has influenced and assisted younger indie directors in finding a modicum of commercial success with less-than-mainstream fare.
