I think he made one after "Dead Man."

Oddly enough, John Hurt, who was also in "Dead Man", had his next to last film role in another Jim Jarmusch film.

I saw it after it came out, and re-watched it last night.
I like Johnny Depp, and Robert Mitchum is one of my all-time favorite actors, but I wouldn't call it a "good movie."
The all-star cast includes Billy Bob Thornton, John Hurt, and Crispin Glover.

I admit it was a best guess on my part.

I agree, the movie was kind of slow, and I think it tried too hard to be deeper than it needed to be. But I did enjoy it, and I do remember Robert Mitchum being in it.

And yes, the cast was pretty great indeed!

There are a bunch of great lines in "Dead Man", and it's nice to see Nobody in greater detail after "Ghost Dog."
