After so many years of wanting to see this film, I saw it at last.
And let me ask... Is there an end to Tom Waits' talents? Tell me he can paint as well and I am starting up a religious group that will worship him as the "one an only"! (As if I haven't been doing that for the past few years already...)
And Benigni as hilarious as ever... Unbelievable...

Exact same situation. Been a Tom Waits fan for a long time and finally got a hold on the movie. I was a amazed by both the movie itself and Tom's performance.
Yep. Love Tom Waits.
Finally saw this movie and it's just gorgeous. I also love John Lurie from his Fishing with John show/DVD. So this was a double treat. And I didn know Benigni was in the movie until he just showed up.
For the sake of discussion, I found this far more entertaining than Stranger Than Paradise, which I saw a couple of months ago.
I'm slowly but surely catching up on the Jim Jarmusch library. Dead Man is next.

yeah, those minutes before titles were stuning and jockey full of burbon in background is apsolutly perfect.
I saw Dead Man finally and love that one too. I need to watch it again though. Most of these require a coule of viewing to get all the enjoyment out of them. Maybe more...
