In bringing his distinct vision to the Western genre, writer-director Jim Jarmusch has created a quasi-mystical avant-garde drama that remains a deeply spiritual viewing experience. After losing his parents and fiancee, a Cleveland accountant named William Blake (a remarkable Johnny Depp) spends all his money and takes a train to the frontier town of Machine in order to work at a factory. Upon arriving in Machine, he is denied his expected job and finds himself a fugitive after murdering a man in self-defense. Wounded and helpless, Blake is befriended by Nobody (Gary Farmer), a wandering Native American who considers him to be a ghostly manifestation of the famous poet. Nobody aids Blake in his flight from three bumbling bounty hunters, preparing him for his final journey--a return to the world of the spirits.
Jarmusch once again employs the beautifully contrasted black-and-white photography of Robby Muller, which sets a poetic, dreamy mood. He also fades in and out of scenes in order to better reflect Blake's dazed, weak mental state. Adding an even greater depth to the film is Neil Young's haunting score, which completes the overall effect. DEAD MAN stands firmly as a timeless work of art whose impact only increases upon subsequent viewings.

Mindblowing
I caught this film originally on the International Film Channel, never had heard of it, and was simply blown away. The story, the acting, cinematography and the soundtrack by Neil Young ( have to listen to this movie real loud. preferrably with surround sound to get the full "Shakey "effect). Iggy Pop, Belmont Tench ( Jeff Beck's former band member). Robert Mitchum, Billy Bob Thornton, the cast goes on and on. Oh, and Johnny Depp's at his best, Remarkable.

Strange little masterpiece
I absolutely loved it! I was told about this film by a friend and I will thank him many times over for the recommendation..Johnny Depp is at his best and this film has a cast you can not believe. If you are building a Depp library you HAVE to include this one ! This is a tale of the death myth and coming to terms with your life. Gary Farmer is amazing as the life/death coach that Depp just can't seem to avoid. An amazing trip all the way around; a definite must see.
