The world may be ending but Bill Murray and Adam Driver are not going to go out without a somewhat laid back fight.

Scenes That I Love: Adam Driver Has Read The Script in The Dead Don’t Die
Jim Jarmusch’s The Dead Don’t Die is a film that has definitely grown on me. When I first watched it, I thought it was intriguing but perhaps a bit too cutesy and enamored with itself. However, I’ve subsequently come to realize that, actually, Jarmusch finds just the perfect tone for his look at our zombie-saturated culture.
In the scenes below, Bill Murray, Chloe Sevigny, and the wonderful Adam Driver all deal with the inevitability of doom that comes with being a character in a zombie film.

Music Video of the Day: It’s Alright With Me, performed by Tom Waits (1990, directed by Jim Jarmusch)
Tom Waits recorded this version of Cole Porter’s It’s Alright With Me for Red Hot + Blue, a compilation album that was put together to benefit the Red Hot Organization, a non-profit organization that raises money for AIDS relief and education.
Probably the best known of the songs to come off of Red Hot + Blue was U2’s version of Night and Day. However, Waits also brought his own unique style to Porter’s lyrics. This video was directed by filmmaker Jim Jarmusch, who has also featured Waits in several of his films.
Enjoy!

Music Video Of The Day: The Lady Don’t Mind by Talking Heads (1986, directed by Jim Jarmusch)
Today is Jim Jarmusch’s birthday. Jarmusch, who is one of the godfathers of American independent film, is 67 years old.
As a director, Jarmusch frequently casts musicians in his films. From John Lurie, who appeared in Jarmuch’s first films (Permanent Vacation, Stranger Than Paradise) to the members of the Wu-Tang Clan and Tom Waits, Jarmusch has always shown an appreciation for musicians as actors. It’s not surprising that, along with feature films, Jarmusch has also directed his share of music videos. Jarmusch has done videos for everyone from Neil Young to Tom Waits but, according to his entry at the imdb, his first music video was for Talking Heads’s The Lady Don’t Mind.
The Lady Don’t Mind was the first single from Talking Heads’s sixth studio album, the best-selling Little Creatures. This video came out two years after Jarmusch’s second film, Stranger Than Paradise.
Enjoy and happy birthday, Jim Jarmusch!
