Stranger Than Paradise (DVD, 2007)

Description: Last remaining parts of once 3,000+ DVD collections. Criterions were purchased used and the scanned for covers then sat on a shelf for nearly a decade.Stranger Than Paradise With this breakout film, Jim Jarmusch established himself as one of the most exciting voices in the burgeoning independent-film scene, a road-movie poet with an affinity for Americana at its most offbeat. Jarmusch follows rootless Hungarian émigré Willie (John Lurie), his pal Eddie (Richard Edson), and his visiting sixteen-year-old cousin, Eva (Eszter Balint), as they drift from New York’s Lower East Side to the snowy expanses of Lake Erie and the drab beaches of Florida, always managing to make the least of wherever they end up. Structured as a series of master-shot vignettes etched in black and white by cinematographer Tom DiCillo, Stranger Than Paradise is a nonchalant masterpiece of deadpan comedy and perfectly calibrated minimalism.FILM INFO:United States/1984/89 minutes/Black & White/1.78:1/EnglishSpine #400DIRECTOR-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESHigh-definition digital restoration, supervised and approved by director Jim Jarmusch, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-rayAudio commentary from 1996 featuring Jarmusch and actor Richard EdsonPermanent Vacation (1980), Jarmusch’s seventy-five-minute, color feature debut, presented in a high-definition digital restoration supervised by the directorKino ’84: Jim Jarmusch, a 1984 German television program featuring interviews with cast and crew members from Stranger Than Paradise and Permanent VacationSome Days in January 1984, a behind-the-scenes Super 8 film by Tom JarmuschU.S. and Japanese trailersEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: Jarmusch’s 1984 “Some Notes on Stranger Than Paradise,” critics Geoff Andrew and J.
