This book probes the production history, initial reception, aesthetics, and legacy of Jim Jarmusch'sStranger than Paradise in order to understand its place in the cult film canon. It explores early-1980s New York downtown culture and Jarmusch's involvement in music as well as reflecting on the film's status alongside Jarmusch's subsequent output.
Geoff King, Brunel University:An excellent, lucid account that maps the position of Stranger Than Paradise via a number of intersections between the realms of cult, art, independent, and punk-related cinema. Offers an accessible but substantial analysis of industrial, formal, and thematic dimensions of what remains an enduring indie classic.
