Focus Features recently premiered a “Meet the Characters” feature for their upcoming dramatic thriller “The Limits of Control“. Director Jim Jarmusch once again re-teaming him with Isaach De Bankole for the fourth time after “Night on Earth,” “Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai,” and “Coffee and Cigarettes.”
The Limits of Control is the story of a mysterious loner (played by Mr. De Bankolé), a stranger, whose activities remain meticulously outside the law. He 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.
Jim Jarmusch’s The Limits of Control Trailer
Focus Features has just released the trailer for their upcoming dramatic thriller “The Limits of Control,” the latest flick from indie filmmaker Jim Jarmusch.
The Limits of Control is set in the striking and varied landscapes of contemporary Spain (both urban and otherwise). The location shoot there united the writer/director with acclaimed cinematographer Christopher Doyle (In the Mood for Love, Paranoid Park).
Isaach De Bankolé stars in the lead role for Mr. Jarmusch; this marks the duo’s fourth collaboration over nearly two decades, following Night on Earth, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, and Coffee and Cigarettes. “The Limits of Control” also features several other actors with whom Mr. Jarmusch has previously worked, including Alex Descas, John Hurt, Youki Kudoh, Bill Murray, and Tilda Swinton; and actors new to his films, including Hiam Abbass, Gael García Bernal, Paz De La Huerta, Jean-François Stévenin, and Luis Tosar.
‘The Visitor’ New Trailer
In The Visitor, the great Richard Jenkins stars as a disillusioned Connecticut economics professor named Walter Vale, whose life is change by a chance encounter in New York City.
In its best moments, the film is a celebration of the transformative power of music, as elderly, worn down Walter learns the drums from an energetic and likable illegal immigrant, and the trailer does its best to highlight that. It’s also a meditation on the issue of immigration, and though that’s only lightly touched on in the trailer.
