Paterson

Paterson

The quintessential American indie filmmaker, Jim Jarmusch, returns with this beguiling, low-key drama. Paterson is a bus driver in the city of Paterson, New Jersey — they share the name.Every day, Paterson adheres to a simple routine: he drives his daily route, observing the city and overhearing fragments of conversation swirling around him; he writes poetry into a notebook; he walks his dog; he stops in a bar and drinks exactly one beer; he goes home to his wife, Laura.The film quietly observes the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry evident in its smallest details.★★★★★ ”Delightfully unironic” Peter Bradshaw’s Film of the Week, The Guardian★★★★★ “Truly special – a breath-catching lesson in aloneness, but one that’s fond of good company, too” - Tim Robey, The Telegraph
