Synopsis:
`Down By Law` - "It`s not where you start - It`s where you start again..."

In one of the hippest comedies ever made, three misfits find themselves thrown together in a New Orleans jail cell. There`s Zach the unemployed DJ, Jack the small-time pimp and Bob, the crazy Italian tourist. Unavailable for many years, this cult hit stars Tom Waits, John Lurie and the Oscar-winning director and star of `Life is Beautiful`, Roberto Benigni.

A film that firmly established Jim Jarmusch as the coolest director on the American independent scene.

`Night On Earth` - "Five Taxis. Five Cities. One Night".

A hip and hilarious comedy from cult director Jim Jarmusch. The action takes place in five cities in one night, with a brilliant cast of cabbies and customers. The stories, stretching from sunset to sunrise, range from the ridiculous to the sublime, punctuated by a haunting theme song by Tom Waits. Jarmusch`s most accessible movie, and a film to cherish. Part subtitled, with dialogue in English, French, Finnish and Italian with English subtitles.
