Permanent Vacation

Jim Jarmusch (director, screenwriter)
Chris Parker, Leila Gastil, John Lurie (starring)

N.p. N.p., Circa 1980. Five vintage borderless color photographs from the 1980 film. Title labels affixed to the verso of each.

Jim Jarmusch's directorial debut, made just after dropping out of film school, his signature patient, ambling, and dryly humorous approach to storytelling firmly established.

Set against the backdrop of a grungy late-1970s New York City, we follow the young, unemployed Allie (Chris Parker), full of ennui, meandering through the city, contemplating his life, and encountering curious and odd characters along the way.

Set in and shot on location in New York City.

Four photographs 5.5 x 3.75 inches, one 5.25 x 3.5 inches. Near Fine.
