RIFF Day 8 – Jim Jarmusch Chats with the Audience

by Pu on October 1, 2010

After the screening of the double feature including Down by Law and The Limits of Control – both covered by in our RIFF section, so check them out! – filmmaker Jim Jarmusch, guest of honor of the 2010 edition of the film festival, entertained a discussion with the audience. Jarmusch touched several different subjects, from the making of his films to his personal interests, sharing with the audience many funny anecdotes. Moderator was film critic Harlan Jacobson.

Iceland Chronicles was there. Here’s our recording of the event (which include a small curiosity: check out Kría Brekkan asking Jarmusch a question in part 10…)

i liked Broken Flowers when I first walked out of the cienma. It was smart, funny and very tightly paced/structured. But after a while, the more I asked the film questions, the more empty it seemed. Not because nothing happened, but rather too many things happened – all the quirky dysfunctionalities of the characters were expected, fast and funny – yet none mattered. I’m not sure, though, if Jarmusch was deliberate with this 2-dimensional cleverness. What broken flowers? I guess if flowers were plastic, they might break. But I would rather have them wilt. SB – you can also try Dead Man! nothing much happens in this mock-western. But there’s johnny depp ;>
