talk about disappointing. i like jim jarmusch, i like the droll bill murray. i liked the idea of jarmusch and murray teaming up for a relatively accessible movie. and broken flowers certainly seemed accessible from the plot synopsis, but in reality, it's accessible only because there's nothing there. nothing to grasp onto, no characters, no plot, no catharsis, nothing. that may miss the point of jarmusch movies, but i'd rather not see his take on the romantic comedy -- one without any romance, comedy, or anything else worth watching.
