Broken Flowers (2005), Jim Jarmusch
3.5/5
A strange and absurd film that feels like an old detective film, and is an oddball comedy. Bill Murray is great in this restrained role in this mid-life crisis character that is reflecting over his life. It has a great supporting cast dominated by strong female actors. This isn't a typical comedy, it has a very dry understated humour. Overall not really mainstream but a really interesting film which reminds me of films like
Rushmore,
The Royal Tennenbaums and
Moonrise Kingdom (all directed by Wes Anderson) as well as
The Squid and the Whale (Noah Baumbach).
