Jim Jarmusch's PATERSON starring Adam Driver as a bus driver/poet

Loved this film. Want to watch it again. I haven't wanted to re-watch a film in a very long time.

damn still haven't got around to seeing this. perhaps since it is Amazon Studios it will be streaming soon.

I loved this too... esp after the shitty Iggy doc and the cringy vampire movie.

It's not the most naturalistic of films.

I forget who commented that a 'mixed' couple goes to see the inter-species horror oldie Island of Lost Souls...

you're a cringy vampire movie.

It's not the most naturalistic of films.

Au contraire: it's naturalistic, not realistic.

Love JJ, not a fan of AD. watch?

definitely

My favourite film of last year I think. It's not flawless but I like it's flaws too.

One thing I liked that I've been mulling over was the Japanese man's exit line: "A-ha!" I know it echoes something that was said earlier in their conversation, but it's also a cliché of teaching workshops: the "a-ha! moment." Paterson gives the cliché some life.

Loved this and pretty much wanted to rewatch immediately too. Felt similarly about the "cringy vampire movie". People caught up on the Jack White things in that feel like people caught up on the quality of dude's poetry in this. Ultimately seems inconsequential.

This is going to be very high on my film poll ballot.

My fave Driver performance to date. Not ruling it out as my fave Jarmusch film, either.
