What do you think of the acting?
I have to say, it was really tough for me to watch this movie. I just couldn't get over (what seemed to me) to be wooden acting by Lurie and Waits. Their movements specifically seemed awkward, but also Lurie's delivery of his lines; Waits' gravely voice however is at least enjoyable to listen to.
Note: My grievance has nothing to do with Jarmusch directing style. I particularly love his film Night on Earth.
I had a false view of...women. I thought of them as wearing invisible halos, not commiting mayhem.
