Jim Jarmusch, the world's most deadpan director, meets Bill Murray, the world's most deadpan actor. The result is not as inert as you might expect.

Sent on a road trip by his over-active friend (the versatile Jeffrey Wright) to find out which ex-girlfriend sent him the unsigned letter claiming they once fathered his son, Murray gets to meet a bunch of feisty ex-girlfriends, who get to do all the acting. I think Murray may have had some expressions in his youth but over the years they've been misplaced. What's left - that haunted, hangdog look way beyond world-weary - still communicates a lot and the road trip enables Jarmusch to indulge in his specialty, a set of lightly linked short films.

The scene that sticks in my memory most is a 360-degree pan around Murray. From any angle at all, there's nothing happening.
