Hard to believe film from the master of US independent cinema.


Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999)
directed by Jim Jarmusch
Everyone knows that Jim Jarmusch is a talented director.It is really a matter of mystery that he chose to make a film about ancient Japanese culture.What is of interest is that he has chosen a black actor to play that role. Funny isn't't it ! By showing a lighter side of gangsters'life, Jarmusch wishes to highlight the importance of laughter in our daily lives. I don't know many films where pigeons have played a vital role. In "Ghost dog", birds are the real stars. This is something which can put any human being to shame. Music of this film is exceptionally great. This is one of the reasons why this film is like a musical rhapsody.
