Good afternoon. On the agenda is the film "Dead Man" 1995, directed by Jim Jarmusch.
This is one of my favorite directors and one of my favorite work of his.
I don’t like particularly cowboy themes, deserts and coal dust, but this film took a special place in the collection. The ingenious soundtrack sounds in my head to this day, despite the fact that after watching the movie a lot of time has passed. It seems to me that this soundtrack is ideal for overcoming life's difficulties.
A little about the story:
Young man William Blake (Johnny Depp) arrives in the Wild West in the hope of finding work. Circumstances are not in his favor: Blake gets into an unpleasant situation and, by chance, becomes the most wanted criminal. A reward is being announced for his head, and now everyone: from an experienced thug to an ordinary hunter, is eager to find and kill a young man. Wounded William rescues a lone Indian. After meeting his guardian angel, Blake has an unusual gift: vision like an eagle and the ability to shoot without a miss.
Why you should watch this movie:
The entire film is designed in black and white style. Despite this, it is very atmospheric and attractive. Especially a forest with dry black and white trees. It looks amazing! Very interesting work of the operator. I would take a screenshot from many frames, print it out and hang it on the wall at home as a picture.
It seems to me that, in addition to the plot, a certain philosophy is hidden in the film. By the middle of the film, it seemed to me that the main character is really dead and I am watching the adventures of his troubled soul.
Reflecting on the film, I can draw the following conclusion: We are all dead when we have nothing to lose. We are not afraid of anything. We just take and do what we have to.
