Broken Flowers

I went to see Broken Flowers last night and can give it pass marks. Don’t expect a lot to happen in it however as it’s quite slow moving, but if you have an idea what to expect from Jim Jarmusch’s previous works then you should enjoy it.

Bill Murray is on good form as Don Johnston “That’s with a ‘T’” a man attempting to trace the writer of an anonymous letter telling him he has a 19 year old son, from his numerous former lovers.

With Bill Murray in every scene practically everyone else is restricted to cameo appearances, but there’s good turns from Sharon Stone and the excellent Frances Conroy from Six Feet Under. Jeffrey Wright puts in a nice performance as Winston his amateur detective neighbour.

If you like either Bill Murray or Jarmusch then you should enjoy this.
