Description
Aloof teenage Japanese tourists, a frazzled Italian widow, and a disgruntled British immigrant all converge in the city of dreams-which, in Mystery Train, from Jim Jarmusch (Stranger Than Paradise, Night on Earth), is Memphis. Made with its director's customary precision and wit, Mystery Train is a triptych of stories that pay playful tribute to the home of Stax Records, Sun Studio, Graceland, Carl Perkins, and, of course, the King himself, who presides over the film like a spirit. Mystery Train is one of Jarmusch's very best movies, a boozy and beautiful pilgrimage to an iconic American ghost town and a paean to the music it gave the world.New, restored high-definition digital transfer, supervised and approved by director Jim Jarmusch, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackQ&A with Jarmusch in which he responds to questions sent in by fans Excerpts from the 2001 documentary Screamin' Jay Hawkins: I Put a Spell on MeOriginal documentary on the film's locations and the rich social and musical history of MemphisOn-set photos by Masayoshi Sukita and behind-the-scenes photosEnglish subtitle translationPLUS: A booklet featuring essays by writers Dennis Lim and Peter Guralnick
