WAMG First Look at ‘The Limits of Control’

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.

If the plot, the trailer and images above, the cast and the director involved weren’t enough for you to get all giddy over this new flick, check the badass retro-cool poster and two fresh clips from the movie below…
