Jim Jarmusch S The Limits Of Control Movie Trailer

Jim Jarmusch’s The Limits Of Control Movie Trailer

By Hunter Stephenson/March 6, 2009 3:00 am EST

While the plot is agreebly locked in storage, the crisp visuals and a cast that includes JJ-fave Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, John Hurt, Gael Garcia Bernal and Isaach De Bankolé in the lead (the French icecream man in Ghost Dog) are hot enough to singe so many art school pencil ‘staches. Jarmusch is a big fan of Lee Marvin, and I get a Point Blank vibe from the film’s logline (below) and the trailer’s upscale attire-meets-gritty minimalistic criminalism.

Also, earlier today I posted the trailer for Explicit Ills, an indie that Jarmusch is producing and backing.

The Limits of Control is the story of a mysterious loner (Isaach De Bankolé), a stranger, whose activities remain meticulously outside the law. He is in the process of completing a job, yet he trusts no one, and his objectives are not initially divulged

The Limits of Control from Focus Features opens in limited release on May 22.
