Mystery Train1989
In Memphis, Tennessee, over the course of a single night, the Arcade Hotel, run by an eccentric night clerk and a clueless bellboy, is visited by a young Japanese couple traveling in search of the roots of rock; an Italian woman in mourning who stumbles upon a fleeing charlatan girl; and a comical trio of accidental thieves looking for a place to hide.

There is a deep embedding of comedy, nostalgia, shabby sadness and visual beauty.
总是对火车缓缓驶出镜头的电影有好感，整个片子透出慵懒，仿徨，微醺的迷人气息，即使这里如今荒凉寂寥，还好有音乐证明曾经的繁华辉煌
The film is about storytelling, about how we make connections between people, places, objects and time to create meaning, and how, when these connections shift, meaning changes. Best of all are Screamin' Jay Hawkins and Cinqué Lee as argumentative hotel receptionists hooked on Tom Waits' late night radio show. They, and Jarmusch's remarkably civilised direction, hold the whole shaggy dog affair together, turning it into one of the best films of the year.
