Jim Jarmusch

In this episode of 92NY Talks, join Netflix's Russian Doll creator and star Natasha Lyonne, co-star Annie Murphy, and writer Alice Ju as they discuss the beloved show's long-awaited second season with filmmaker Jim Jarmusch. Brilliantly conceived and anchored by a hilarious, virtuoso performance by Lyonne, Russian Doll is one of the hottest shows on TV this season for good reason — it's utterly original. The conversation was recorded on May 22, 2022 in front of a live audience at The 92nd Street Y, New York.

This week, I was so pleased to welcome to the podcast a friend I made last summer during Cinephile Game Night where we played on opposite sides, me as a guest with Team The Film Stage at Lincoln Center and Mitchell Beaupre as part of the delightful Team Letterboxd. Currently based in Newark, Delaware, Mitchell is not only the Senior Editor at one of my favorite services (via Letterboxd) but they're also the co-host of the recently launched podcast Weekend Watchlist, which you can find in the stream for The Letterbod Show. Additionally, a prolific freelance film journalist and stellar interviewer for prestigious outlets such as "The Film Stage," "Paste Magazine," "The Playlist," and "Little White Lies," you can keep up with all of their impressive work on Twitter @ItIsMitchell. Joining me to discuss a filmmaker that they fell in love with at a time when they needed it the most (while suffering from a scary, then-undiagnosed autoimmune condition), in this passionate two-hour episode, we go deep into our personal connections to the humanistic works of Jim Jarmusch. Filled with research and analysis as well as humor and heart, although we primarily explore the films "Mystery Train," "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai," "Broken Flowers," and "Paterson," over the course of this thoughtful conversation, we provide an overview and appreciation of four decades in the iconoclastic indie director's storied career.

On this week’s Talkhouse Podcast , we’ve got a roundtable of old friends who are also, as it happens, all New York City legends: Cynthia Sley and Pat Place of Bush Tetras with Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore, and director Jim Jarmusch. Cynthia and Pat — vocalist and guitarist, respectively — started the “groove-centric” post-punk band Bush Tetras in 1979 with Laura Kennedy on bass and Dee Pop on drums. They broke up just a few years later, but over the decades they’ve reunited periodically, and are back in action now — though, sadly, without Kennedy, who died in 2011, and Dee Pop, who passed away last month after the recording of this conversation. But as Cynthia told the New York Times , “Bush Tetras is a force that cannot be stopped.” Their pioneering work lives on, archived in a new box set called Rhythm and Paranoia: The Best of Bush Tetras , which came out on Wharf Cat last week and includes three LPs and a booklet featuring essays by Moore, Jarmusch, members of The Clash and Gang of Four, and many others. Thurston Moore was a founding member of Sonic Youth. Now based in London, he performs and records solo — his latest album is last year's By The Fire . Jim Jarmusch is the director of films like Stranger Than Paradise , Down By Law , Coffee and Cigarettes , and so many more. He’s also a musician, and currently performs with the avant-rock band SQÜRL . As Cynthia says at the beginning of their conversation, they have about 40 years of friendship between the four them, but this is the first time all four of them have gotten to talk together. Their decades-in-the-making conversation covers a lot, including Pat’s influence on Thurston as a guitarist, Tier 3 and Mudd Club memories, and an era of New York when there were still chicken slaughterhouses on Prince Street. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast , and thanks to Bush Tetras, Thurston Moore, and Jim Jarmusch for chatting. This episode was produced by Melissa Kaplan, and the Talkhouse theme is composed and performed by the Range. See you next time!

Thank you for checking out our latest episode of The Film Scribes Podcast. This week the film Rich Heimlich (/comment), Stephen Silver (Splice Today, Philly Voice), and Dan Tabor (Phawker, Cinapse.co) chat with American auteur Jim Jarmusch about his latest the all-star zombie comedy The Dead Don't Die. Its a fun and candid conversation about not only why the director decided to tackle the zombie genre, but why he can't watch his older films. As always any feedback or questions can be sent to Filmscribes@philafcc.org to be discussed on a future show.

This week’s podcast – spanning both the Cinema and Contemporary Music programme – delves into the musical world of the cult director’s compelling cinematic oeuvre, from whiskey-soaked Tom Waits to John Lurie’s No Wave Sax. Ahead of the Jim Jarmusch Revisited show here in September 2017 (http://bit.ly/2g7X2v9), we talk to musical fans including Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos, David Coulter, Camille O’Sullivan, Mulatu Astatke, Jolie Holland and also to the journalist Karen Krizanovich.
