Johnny Depp followed "Edward Scissorhands " with this stunning surreal and off-beat comedy by acclaimed director Emir Kusturica who made his first and only Hollywood film that has become a cult classic. The studios didn't like the film and butchered it but the European version (director's cut) is a real gem that remains of the most under-rated films. The quirky story of a dreamer who's invited by his uncle to Arizona where he's torn between an unstable mother and daughter. The stellar cast includes Jerry Lewis and Faye Dunaway but Lili Taylor and Vincent Gallo deliver career best performances in this charming film. The soundtrack by Kusturica regular Goran Bregovic and Iggy Pop is equally stunning. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
