Down by Law

This is a Jim Jarmusch film starring Tom Waits. I loved it. Overall it was slow, or maybe more properly minimalistic. Not a whole lot happened. But the things that did happen were very interesting. And the characters were fantastic.

In the special features Jim tells that he and the crew would make up and tell Roberto Benigni (who was learning english at the time) fake english words and sayings, which he would unknowingly adopt and use in everyday speech. That is amazing.
