Jim Jarmush w jednym z wywiadów określił swój film "neo-bit-noir comedy". Trzej pechowcy, Zack - były DJ radiowy (w tej roli Tom Waits), stręczyciel o imieniu Jack (John Lurie) oraz zbzikowany włoski pokerzysta Roberto (w tej roli Roberto Benigni) spotykają się w więziennej celi gdzieś w Nowym Orleanie i świat staje na głowie…
Muzykę do tego anty-kryminału skomponował John Lurie. Jego abstrakcyjna wyobraźnia, która tak zachwyca w Lounge Lizards, podkreśla mroczną, humorystyczną aurę filmu. Spotykamy między innymi członków Lounge Lizards, sztandarowej załogi nowojorskiego down-town, czyli Curtisa Fowlkesa, Evana Lurie'go, Marka Ribota czy Arto "Guitar" Lindsay'a.

Editor's info
The soundtrack to Jim Jarmusch's 1986 film Down By Law is composed and performed by John Lurie, who also plays the pimp Jack in the movie. His world-weary avant-jazz pieces like "Please Come to My House," "What Do You Know About Music, You're Not a Lawyer," "Strangers in the Day," and "Fork in the Road" convey the film's seedy but humorous crime story.
Director Jim Jarmusch followed up his brilliant breakout film Stranger Than Paradise with another, equally beloved portrait of loners and misfits in the American landscape. When fate brings together three hapless men—an unemployed disc jockey (Tom Waits), a small-time pimp (John Lurie), and a strong-willed Italian tourist (Roberto Benigni)—in a Louisiana prison, a singular adventure ensues. Described by Jarmusch as a “neo-Beat noir comedy,” Down by Law is part nightmare and part fairy tale, featuring sterling performances and crisp black-and-white cinematography by the esteemed Robby Müller.
