Jack and Zack, super-cool no-hoppers, meet up in a New Orleans jail. Initially at odds with one another, they are soon distracted by the arrival of Roberto, whose pidgin English, memories of old movies, and quotations from Robert Frost in his native Italian keep them both irritated and amused. Finally, however, it is this garrulous and eternally optimistic little man who leads the two self-appointed tough guys to freedom.

Jim Jarmusch

Steadfastly resisting the sirens of Hollywood, the director Jim Jarmusch has fashioned stylish, worldly, and thoroughly hip movies that have been the toast of the international film circuit.
Born on January 22, 1953, in Akron, OH, Jarmusch was the son of a former film critic. With no film experience, he was accepted into New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and soon found himself a teaching assistant to legendary maverick filmmaker Nicholas Ray. Ray helped him get funding for his thesis project, Permanent Vacation. Jarmusch was awarded the Golden Palm for his short Coffee and Cigarettes (1993). Stranger Than Paradise won Golden Camera in Cannes and Special Award: Dramatic at Sundance.
