As Luisa is studying Jim Jarmusch movies for film class in school, we went over "Mystery Train" (1989), "Night on Earth" (1991), and "Broken Flowers" (2005). I enjoyed remembering the great comic scenes in the first two, such as Screaming Jay Hawkins and Cinqué Lee as hotel clerk and bellhop in "Mystery Train", or Armin Mueller-Stahl, Giancarlo Esposito, and Rosie Perez in a taxi from Manhattan to Brooklyn in "Night on Earth". But what I remember most from "Broken Flowers" is not comic: Tilda Swinton's rage when her long-lost ex Bill Murray shows up unannounced and without explanation. Her performance in just one scene steals the movie in a couple minutes. (Andrew Shields, #111words, 25 April 2022)
