Mystery Train

1989, Movie, 1h 46min

Aloof teenage Japanese tourists, a frazzled Italian widow, and a disgruntled British immigrant all converge in the city of dreams—which, in MYSTERY TRAIN, from Jim Jarmusch, is Memphis. Made with its director’s customary precision and wit, this triptych of stories pays playful tribute to the home of Stax Records, Sun Studio, Graceland, Carl Perkins, and, of course, the King, who presides over the film like a spirit. MYSTERY TRAIN is one of Jarmusch’s very best movies, a boozy and beautiful pilgrimage to an iconic American ghost town and a paean to the music it gave the world.

En af de bedste Jim Jarmusch-film... tre 'quirky' indie novellefilm der alle foregår i Memphis.

In the heart of Memphis, a forgotten hotel becomes the crossing point for five strangers' journeys. A young Japanese couple, obsessed with Elvis, follows their dreams to Graceland. An Italian widow, mourning her husband's passing, experiences a delusion of her own. A comical trio of accidental thieves seeks refuge in the hotel, and a series of strange encounters unfold.

With a nod to the King of Rock, Mystery Train takes its passengers on a wild ride full of laughter, love, and the unpredictable tales of the human spirit.
