Jim Jarmusch changes independent cinema forever in an exemplary New York comedy.

Stranger than Paradise
1983, Jim Jarmusch

United States — Germany
89 minutes, English with Russian subtitles

Starring: John Lurie, Eszter Balint, Richard Edson

Willie lives in New York, but all he can boast is an accent, debts, and a shabby rented flat. But his 16-year-old cousin Eva, who stops at Willy’s place on her way from Budapest, sees nothing dramatic in her cousin’s lifestyle: America fascinates her more. Although static and monochrome, Jim Jarmusch’s second film instantly won the love of audiences with its rare, very New York-ish sense of humour and unparalleled touch of style.

Shoе from Stranger than Paradise, 1983

Daring in its conception but made with a watchmaker’s care, “Stranger Than Paradise” is a playfully eclectic, formally perfect gem.

— Paul Attanasio, The Washington Post
