WAMG First Look at ‘The Limits of Control’

limitsofcontrolpic03

Back in February, we informed you of some great casting news for director Jim Jarmusch’s next project called ‘The Limits of Control’ which is now well under way. Jarmusch (Dead Man) is probably most widely known for his last film ‘Broken Blowers’ which also starred Bill Murray. For those of you unfamiliar with Jarmusch’s work, ‘The Limits of Control’ looks to be a return to the type of filmmaking he pursued with ‘Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai’. Before you watch the trailer and write this off as a ‘No Country for Old Men’ rip off, let me assure you that’s a misguided assumption. Jarmusch is a legitimate and very talented, highly influential indie filmmaker and this movie looks to be very cool.

‘The Limits of Control’ tells the story of a mysterious loner (Isaach De Bankolà ©) who…

…is in the process of completing a job, yet he trusts no one, and his objectives are not initially divulged. His journey, paradoxically both intently focused and dreamlike, takes him not only across Spain but also through his own consciousness. — Focus Features

‘The Limits of Control’ stars Bill Murray,  Isaach De Bankolà ©, Gael Garcà ­a Bernal, Tilda Swinton, John Hurt and Paz de la Huerta. The movie is scheduled for a limited U.S. release in theaters on May 1, 2009.

  1. Jim Jarmusch’s last movie was Coffee and Cigarettes, but i think you are trying to refer to Broken Flowers as one of the movies Bill Murray and Tilda Swinton also starred in.

    Isaach De Bankolé is awesome and has been in his numerous work with Jarmusch over many years. I can’t wait to see this.

  2. Actually, with all due respect, ‘Coffee and Cigarettes’ was released in 2003, while ‘Broken Flowers’ was released in 2005 and WAS the last movie he made. I do agree that this looks like it’s going to be a great film!

  3. No matter what some people believe, a french press is for sure better than any other type of coffee I’ve ever tried. If you have a bit of time, take a visit over to the french press guide we’ve put together at frenchpresshowto.com. Thanks a lot for the post!
