Mystery Train
1989 · TMDB 7.3
Directed by Jim Jarmusch
In Memphis, Tennessee, over the course of a single night, the Arcade Hotel, run by an eccentric night clerk and a clueless bellboy, is visited by a young Japanese couple traveling in search of the roots of rock; an Italian woman in mourning who stumbles upon a fleeing charlatan girl; and a comical trio of accidental thieves looking for a place to hide.
Why it matters
Three stories intertwine in a seedy Memphis hotel, all touched by the ghost of Elvis Presley, in Jarmusch's deadpan love letter to rock 'n' roll.
