The film made by Jamusch is to make the most ordinary stories in the most ordinary way. There is no theme, no enlightenment, just flat and straightforward narration. The story has no characteristic, but the three people who met by the water spent a period of time in their lives together. The three people get along in prison, talk nonsense, play around, and get along on the road easily after escape. Talking, playing around, there is no test of humanity, complicated communicative politics, everything in this is very ordinary, no one or anything. Halo. Zack and Jack get along awkwardly, they can't hold up a chat, getting along is full of alienation. Bob is innocent, funny, and speaks very substandard English, but he can afford to play a joke. Only three people play around, but the alienation is still there, and he is an adult. The movie screen is beautiful, proportion and angle are indispensable. All in all, it looks good. Not Hollywood at all, not commercial at all.
