maybe i'm wrong, and everyone knows this

it seems to me, though i may be wrong and haven't read every recent post, that the nature of this film is not commonly understood. what i mean is that it is an anthology of shorts that jarmusch filmed on and off for a time that spanned three decades, beginning in the late eighties with the roberto benini-steven wright skit. this should be considered in regards to the film, whether or not you enjoyed or admired it, or while re-evaluating the film if you did not know this, which i suspect a few did not or did not rightfully consider... it was more or less a side project, though it obviously meant something to jarmusch, which is intended to resonate with others.
i thought it was entertaining, though there were a few times that the film was a bit graceless. but most of the skits ended before they wore out their novelty or theme, though some before they really found anything more than a rhythm.

Bill Murray is the greatest actor in all of history and for all eternity. Vive le Bill Murray.
