 village voice > film > Coffee and Cigarettes by Michael Atkinson
Quirky formal ideas lollygag along with the occasional visionary impulse, and the high time Jarmusch has making his free-associative movies surrounded by cool, riffing cronies (and fellow Sons of Lee Marvin) has been an aspect of the films' buoyancy as well as their self-indulgence.
Running with this wafer-thin idea—and two additional and similar shorts shot since, one starring Cinqué Lee, Joie Lee, and Steve Buscemi, the other Tom Waits and Iggy Pop—Jarmusch conceived eight more vignettes, all centered around cups o' joe and some smokes, all shot in high-contrast fl-and-white.
C&C hardly coalesces, but then again, it doesn't try to—never more or less than what it appears to be, the film is a slow honky-tonk thud-beat, only intermittently punctuated by a joke or idea.
