Great Little Black and White Film
Plopped down on the couch, last night, and popped in a film titled Coffee and Cigarettes.
The film has a list of actors ranging from Tom Waits, who is paired up with Iggy Pop, to Cate Blanchett, and is actually a series of short films spooled together around a common theme, coffee and cigarettes, and the conversations which ensue over these two ubiquitous mainstays of life.
No chase scenes, no special effects, unless you count Cate Blanchett’s short film where she plays both characters in the scene, and, best of all, wonderful black and white cinematography.
Enjoy.
