Jim Jarmusch is an American arthouse film writer, director and actor. He is best known for directing
Johnny Depp in
Dead Man, but it's hardly his only film.
His work tends to be very existential, examining questions of the purpose of life - and never, ever, answering them. He tends to favour long, slow takes, and pays such attention to the scores of his works that they're practically characters.
His filmography as a director includes :
He's also done some acting, notably as the Frostee Cream Boy in
Sling Blade and the car dealer in
Leningrad Cowboys Go America. He also played Raoul Duke /
Hunter S. Thompson in a radio play version of
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and appeared
as himself on
The Simpsons and
Bored To Death.
