Not reviewed at press time. It's probably quite telling, as a friend pointed out to me, that the latest film from indie film figurehead Jarmusch premiered in the U.S. mere days before the opening of Cannes, where the international film community regards Jarmusch as more of a godhead than figurehead. His movie is an elliptical story about a loner and the criminal activity in which he's involved. No advance screenings were held in Austin.
