Mystery Train - The Criterion Collection

£22.99

Released: 24th April 2023. Aloof teenage Japanese tourists, a frazzled Italian widow, and a disgruntled British immigrant all converge in the city of dreams—which, in Mystery Train, from Jim Jarmusch (Stranger Than Paradise, Night on Earth), is Memphis. Made with its director’s customary precision and wit, Mystery Train is a triptych of stories that pay playful tribute to the home of Stax Records, Sun Studio, Graceland, Carl Perkins, and, of course, the King himself, who presides over the film like a spirit. Mystery Train is one of Jarmusch’s very best movies, a boozy and beautiful pilgrimage to an iconic American ghost town and a paean to the music it gave the world. DIRECTOR-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES New, restored high-definition digital transfer, supervised and approved by director Jim Jarmusch (with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition) Q&A with Jarmusch in which he responds to questions sent in by fans Original documentary on Mystery Train’s locations and Memphis’s rich social and musical history On-set photos by Masayoshi Sukita, and behind-the-scenes photos New and improved English subtitle translation PLUS: a booklet featuring essays by writers Peter Guralnick and Dennis Lim, as well as a collectible poster
