Broken Flowers
"Well, the past is gone, I know that. The future, isn't here yet, whatever it's going to be. So, all there is, is, is this. The present. That's it."
Broken Flowers is meant to be tiring to watch, as the melancholy man himself, Bill Murray, who is the lead role of Don Johnston. With the name have a clue of how he is exhausted, Don Juan, a young blood playboy and a rich nepo baby. Who is known for always love in physically not mentally. But this is Don Johnston. Melancholy man, that also used to do that, with a bunch of exes. We see Don wandering throughout the country with flowers each for 5 suspected exes and each different persona. For the purpose is to find and solve the mystery of the crucial pink mail letter, personal information about him. Don Johnston lived a boring life in old age, and he had no wife, no child and apart from his current girlfriend. That one day, a pink mail letter, stating that Don Johnston had a biological kid that, right now, his age is 19 years old, from the one of his exes. Bill Murray and Jim Jarmusch formula, makes this film beautiful even more. The flowers and colortone perfecting the set of the cinematography. Bill Murray's expressions is probably what Jim Jarmusch could not ever find in somebody else except him. Bill could show sadness without crying so hard, and that shows how perfect and melancholy he is for the role.
