Title: Deadwood
Review: Some are born to sweet delightSome are born to endless nightWilliam Blake reincarnated as a Cleveland accountant in the Far West, in a psychedelic Western (so says Wikipedia) by Jim Jarmusch.Johnny Depp in a charming role as the accountant turned gunslinger, in the company of a poetry reciting Indian named Nobody (who looks like Meat Loaf but isn't), fleeing from a posse of natural born killers, sent after him by Robert Mitchum (in his last film), whose son Gabriel Byrne has been killed by Blake. Some other quirky little roles for Billy Bob Thornton, Iggy Pop, Alfred Molina...A black and white feast for the eye and for people with a weird sense of humor.Wikipedia also says that this is like Blood Meridian. That's malarkey, to quote somebody from the film (I believe the cannibalistic killer uses it) and the Vice President, who reminded me of that charming old word the other day, in his toothy way.
Is the review positive or negative?
