Brilliant cult director Jarmusch's stylish debut. John Lurie is Willie, a disenchanted Hungarian who ducks and dives in NY. He is less than happy when his young cousin Eva comes to stay, but they hit it off and end up on the road, in search of the American Dream. Impossibly cool. Unbelievably hip.

WHERE THE BUFFALO ROAM (1980)
Certification18 Our Rating
A tour de force of twisted weirdness, gonzo journalism and mutated nastiness, plus a bit of fear and loathing. Based on the writings and real life exploits of 60s journalist Hunter S Thompson. It's all here, the copious drink, the superhuman drug intake, and the wind-ups shot at whatever symbol of authority Thompson considers as fair game. Excellent.
