The Jim Jarmusch Collection Competition

Featuring Permanent Vacation, Stranger Than Paradise and Down By Law, The Jim Jarmusch Collection: Volume 1 is released on DVD on 12th May 2008 by Optimum Home Entertainment, priced £34.99. Win DVD boxsets!

After early critical acclaim for his debut Permanent Vacation (1980), Jarmusch wowed critics with Stranger than Paradise (1984), winning the Camera D’Or at Cannes: the award for Best First Film. The iconic Down by Law (1986) completes this first Jarmusch box-set from Optimum and stars musicians-turned-actors Tom Waits and John Lurie (Lounge Lizards) – who also contribute to the soundtrack. The epitome of laid-back cool, Jarmusch works time and again with the same bunch of eclectic actors, musicians, artists and technicians, producing work of distinct visual and narrative appeal that, with these films earned him first a loyal cult audience, then subsequent international acclaim and box office.
